Abstract

We propose a protein model based on a hierarchy of constraints that force the protein to follow certain pathways when changing conformation. The model exhibits a first order phase transition, cooperativity and is exactly solvable. It also shows an unexpected symmetry between folding and unfolding pathways as suggested by a recent experiment.
