The background to the concept of the term "molten globule" as a description of intermediates observed in the folding of globular proteins is discussed. These compact intermediates are characterised by certain properties including the presence of secondary structure and considerable conformational mo

Mathematical models for the protein folding-unfolding process involving multiple intermediates have been derived. Computer fitting of the experimental data to this model generates various thermodynamic parameters for the folding-unfolding process. In this way, the complex folding-unfolding process o
It is becoming increasingly evident that intermediates observed in protein folding in vitro may be closely related to conformational states that are important in various intracellular processes. This review focuses on recent advances in in vitro protein-folding studies with particular reference to t
