Abstract
To date, the slowest-folding proteins folded ab initio by all-atom molecular dynamics simulations with fidelity to experimental kinetics have had folding times in the range of nanoseconds to microseconds. These include the designed mini-protein Trp-cage (∼4.1 μs), the villin headpiece domain (∼10 μs), a fast-folding variant of villin (<1 μs), and Fip35 WW domain (∼13 μs). In this communication, we report simulations of several folding trajectories, each from fully unfolded states, of the 39-residue protein NTL9(1-39), which experimentally has a folding time of ∼1.5 ms.
