Proposed model of ribozyme folding and stability in crowding environments. (a) Cartoon represents the acceleration of the docking and catalysis of the ribozyme in the presence of crowding agents and divalent metal ions. (b) The free energy change diagram shows the docked state is stabilized by −1.2 kcal/mol of energy in the presence of PEG.
