摘要

Proteins are complex molecules, yet their folding kinetics is often fast (microseconds) and simple, involving only a single exponential function of time (called two-state kinetics). The main model for two-state kinetics has been transition-state theory, where an energy barrier defines a slow step to reach an improbable structure. But how can barriers explain fast processes, such as folding? We study a simple model with rigorous kinetics that explains the high speed instead as a result of the microscopic parallelization of folding trajectories. The single exponential results from a separation of timescales; the parallelization of routes is high at the start of folding and low thereafter. The ensemble of rate-limiting chain conformations is different from in transition-state theory; it is broad, overlaps with the denatured state, is not aligned along a single reaction coordinate, and involves well populated, rather than improbable, structures.
