Which statement is true about protein folding? ○ The equilibrium between folded and unfolded states is best determined by measuring the time course of unfolding ○ Refolding of a protein typically exhibits a linear dependence on the concentration of denaturant ○ The sigmoidal shape of the unfolding transition reflects the complex architecture of proteins ○ Proteins with stable folding intermediates usually exhibit smooth free-energy funnels ○ The rate of unfolding increases as the temperature increases towards the Tm value

b. Compounds A, B, C, and D are known to be intermediates in the pathway for production of protein E. To determine where the block in protein-E production occurred in each individual, the various intermediates were given to each individuals cel Is in culture. After a few weeks of growth with the intermediate, the cells were assayed for the production of protein E. The results for each individuals cells are given in the following table. A plus sign means that protein E was produced after the cells were given the intermediate listed at the top of the column. A minus sign means that the cells still could not produce protein E even after being exposed to the intermediate at the top of the column. Denote the point in the pathway in which each individual is blocked.
