Scientific paper

Molecular dynamics simulations of folding in an off-lattice protein model
reveal a nucleation scenario, in which a few well-defined contacts are formed
with high probability in the transition state ensemble of conformations. Their
appearance determines folding cooperativity and drives the model protein into
its folded conformation.
