Smoothing of five hypothetical energy landscapes by consensus design. Five protein homologues exhibit differences in their energy landscapes, with three containing kinetic traps that present a propensity for misfolding. As the kinetic traps are not conserved across all five homologues, consensus design is capable of smoothing out the energy landscape to eliminate non-conserved features.
