Characteristics of the thermally induced folding–unfolding transition of BWYV PK simulated using the temperature–REMD method at C = 500 mM and f = 0. (a and b) Free energy profiles of the molecular extension (a; Ree) and radius of gyration (b; Rg) at 20, 60, 80, and 110 °C. Each curve is normalized to G = 0 at its probability P(R) maximum. (c) Temperature dependence of the fraction of the four prominent states, which are explicitly labeled.
