The findings have some immediate applications. Investigators have had difficulty determining whether a particular intermediate for folding is a productive on-pathway intermediate that will result in a proper conformation, or whether something has gone wrong during folding. With PYP, folding by rapid mixing in denaturants and refolding after signaling both pass through the same state, suggesting that this is an on-pathway intermediate.9 a# @ l ^9 F( z6 X* h; y) `
