| Abstract | We report the direct observation of equilibrium folding-unfolding dynamics of a mechanically labile, three helix bundle protein GA using a commercial atomic force microscope (AFM). Our study extends the capability of commercial AFMs towards studying protein unfolding/refolding at equilibrium as well as increasingly complex biomolecular systems in the context of biological function. |
