✦ Synopsis

Successful protein design is characterized by two criteria: thermodynamic robustness, the probability of occupation of the target conformation, and kinetic efficiency, the ability of the protein to quickly fold to its target state. We observe a conflict between robustness and efficiency upon variation of both the pair potential matrix and the designed sequence. We argue that marginal reduction in thermodynamic robustness can provide significant increase in kinetic efficiency, thereby allowing improved protein design.

There are two main approaches to subsampling=resampling for dependent data: model based and model free. In the former, the dependence structure is modelled in terms of a few unknown parameters and independent errors. In the latter, the observed series is divided into blocks, and these blocks are use

## Abstract Theoretical studies of RNA and lattice protein models suggest that mutationally robust or the so‐called designable phenotypes tend to have special geometric features such as being more compact and more geometrically regular. Such geometrical forms have been also linked to speed of foldi

## Abstract The discovery of β€œmolecular chaperones” has dramatically changed our concept of cellular protein folding. Rather than folding spontaneously, most newly synthesized polypeptide chains seem to acquire their native conformation in a reaction mediated by these versatile helper proteins. Und
