Why Do Proteins Fold?  

This morning in lecture, we were asked to conduct a thought experiment, where we closed our eyes, pretended to be a protein, and asked ourselves what would cause us to fold.

*Sidenote* - Telling me to close my eyes before noon is just begging me to fall asleep. Don't tempt me like that. *End Sidenote*

If I were a protein, and somebody pushed me all in while I was holding an eight-two off-suit, I would fold faster than an origami champion.

I think I deserve a Nobel Prize.
