| Abstract: | The slow equilibration of the denatured state after rapid unfolding of a globular protein is examined by the cluster model of protein folding (Kanehisa &; Tsong, 1978). The detection of this process in ribonuclease A and its acid catalysis have been considered evidence for the proline isomerization model. Our calculation shows that similar kinetic behavior is also expected for the cluster model. |
