The diffusion-collision model of protein folding is assessed. A description is given of the qualitative aspects and quantitative results of the diffusion-collision model and their relation to available experimental data. We consider alternative mechanisms for folding and point out their relationship to the diffusion-collision model. We show that the diffusion-collision model is supported by a growing body of experimental and theoretical evidence, and we outline future directions for developing the model and its applications.
对蛋白质折叠的扩散-碰撞模型进行了评估。文中描述了扩散-碰撞模型的定性方面、定量结果及其与现有实验数据的关系。我们考虑了折叠的替代机制,并指出了它们与扩散-碰撞模型的关系。我们表明,越来越多的实验和理论证据支持扩散-碰撞模型,并且概述了该模型及其应用的未来发展方向。
