An important idea that emerges from the energy landscape theory of protein folding is that subtle global features of the protein landscape can profoundly affect the apparent mechanism of folding. The relationship between various characteristic temperatures in the phase diagrams and landmarks in the

It is hard to construct theories for the folding of globular proteins because they are large and complicated molecules having enormous numbers of nonnative conformations and having native states that are complicated to describe. Statistical mechanical theories of protein folding are constructed arou
Mutagenesis makes it possible to examine the effect of amino acid replacements on the folding and stability of proteins. The evaluation of kinetic and equilibrium folding data using reaction coordinate diagrams allows one to determine the roles that single amino acids play in the folding mechanism.

The folding mechanism of cellular retinoic acid binding protein I (CRABP I), cellular retinol binding protein II (CRBP II), and intestinal fatty acid binding protein (IFABP) were investigated to determine if proteins with similar native structures have similar folding mechanisms. These mostly -shee
## Abstract We have initiated an entirely new approach to statistical mechanical models of strongly interacting systems where the configurational parameters and the potential energy function are both constructed so that the canonical partition function can be evaluated analytically. For a simplifie
