WW Domain FBP28 (Formin binding protein):WW Domain FBP28 (Formin binding protein):

• Fastest folding of the family (10s of Fastest folding of the family (10s of s)s)• The fold is conserved upon mutationsThe fold is conserved upon mutations

• Temp, mutations and sequence truncation modulate a three- to two-Temp, mutations and sequence truncation modulate a three- to two-state folding pathwaystate folding pathway
