A simple two-state protein unfolds mechanically via multiple heterogeneous pathways at single-molecule resolution
Previous investigations have indicated that the model protein CspB folds in a simple two-state fashion. Here, the authors provide direct experimental evidence for that the energy landscape of two-state folding proteins is highly heterogeneous and that unfolding can occur via multiple pathways.
