Recent Topics in Protein Folding

The protein folding is a long-standing problem and there have been a lot of experimental and theoretical/computational studies so far [1-3]. These efforts by many researches have reveals mysterious folding mechanisms of proteins. However, there are still several unsolved problems on protein folding. An interesting one is how the information of the folding mechanism of a protein is encoded in its amino acid sequence. In the present short article, I discuss the remaining interesting problems on protein folding.
