Folding–unfolding asymmetry and a RetroFold computational algorithm

We treat protein folding as molecular self-assembly, while unfolding is viewed as disassembly. Fracture is typically a much faster process than self-assembly. Self-assembly is often an exponentially decaying process, since energy relaxes due to dissipation, while fracture is a constant-rate process...
