Factors That Control the Force Needed to Unfold a Membrane Protein in Silico Depend on the Mode of Denaturation
Single-molecule force spectroscopy methods, such as AFM and magnetic tweezers, have proved extremely beneficial in elucidating folding pathways for soluble and membrane proteins. To identify factors that determine the force rupture levels in force-induced membrane protein unfolding, we applied our n...
