AI Article Synopsis
- Fold switching is important for the evolution of new protein structures and their functions.
- He et al. demonstrate in their research that a significant change in protein shape can happen through various mutation routes.
- Their findings highlight the flexibility and complexity of protein evolution.
Article Abstract
Fold switching may play a role in the evolution of new protein folds and functions. He et al., in this issue of Structure, use protein design to illustrate that the same drastic change in a protein fold can occur via multiple different mutational pathways.
