Atomic force microscopy has been widely used to study the mechanical stability of proteins, and obtained unfolding forces and unfolding distance of different proteins, while recently, more low force folding and unfolding measurements were done by optical tweezers and magnetic tweezers. Due to the relatively small distortion of the free energy landscape, low force measurements give the free energy landscape information over bigger conformational space. In this review, we summarize the results of force spectroscopy experiments on different proteins. The unfolding distance obtained at high forces by atomic force microscopy are mostly smaller than 2 nm, while the unfolding distances at low forces distribute over a larger range: from a negative value to more than 6 nm. The sizes of the transition states at low force are ~4 nm for most compact two-state globular proteins, which indicates that this transition state might be the general free energy barrier separating the unfolded state and the theoretically predicated molten globule state.

The disruption of cellular redox systems causes damage to the cellular membrane leading to ferroptotic cell death. Recent studies have shown that numerous pathological diseases, like tumors, neurodegenerative disorders, and ischemia-reperfusion injury are associated with ferroptosis.
