folding
Protein folding is the physical process by which a protein chain acquires its native 3-dimensional structure, a conformation that is usually biologically functional, in an expeditious and reproducible manner. It is the physical process by which a polypeptide folds into its characteristic and functional three-dimensional structure from random coil.
Each protein exists as an unfolded polypeptide or random coil when translated from a sequence of mRNA to a linear chain of amino acids. This polypeptide lacks any stable (long-lasting) three-dimensional structure (the left hand side of the first figure). As the polypeptide chain is being synthesized by a ribosome, the linear chain begins to fold into its three-dimensional structure. Folding begins to occur even during translation of the polypeptide chain. Amino acids interact with each other to produce a well-defined three-dimensional structure, the folded protein (the right hand side of the figure), known as the native state. The resulting three-dimensional structure is determined by the amino acid sequence or primary structure (Anfinsen's dogma).The correct three-dimensional structure is essential to function, although some parts of functional proteins may remain unfolded, so that protein dynamics is important. Failure to fold into native structure generally produces inactive proteins, but in some instances misfolded proteins have modified or toxic functionality. Several neurodegenerative and other diseases are believed to result from the accumulation of amyloid fibrils formed by misfolded proteins. Many allergies are caused by incorrect folding of some proteins, because the immune system does not produce antibodies for certain protein structures.Denaturation of proteins is a process of transition from the folded to the unfolded state. It happens in cooking, in burns, in proteinopathies, and in other contexts.
The duration of the folding process varies dramatically depending on the protein of interest. When studied outside the cell, the slowest folding proteins require many minutes or hours to fold primarily due to proline isomerization, and must pass through a number of intermediate states, like checkpoints, before the process is complete. On the other hand, very small single-domain proteins with lengths of up to a hundred amino acids typically fold in a single step. Time scales of milliseconds are the norm and the very fastest known protein folding reactions are complete within a few microseconds.
Bought this for a project I never had the time for. Brand new never mounted.
Mounts to 1913 rail on the back of a gun. Stock alone is 7.5 inches (hinge adds additional length). Hinge will fold right or left (by flipping it upside down).
Price: $150 shipped

Used a few times to mount optics because it has 4 leveling feet and fits almost any rifle. I used it mostly for cleaning… some building.
The folding rest kinda flips up at the ends and extends its length. Never used.
No nicks or dings and nothing threaded is stripped out. Even the dust on it...
Like new and in great condition. Bought it on another pew forum. As it was enroute, i decided to go another direction and not add the folder on my toy. I just got it in the mail
Pick up in felida. Cash or one of many other forms of Epay

Any recommendations on a discreet soft case for a mini with a Samson stock? Measures about 30" from muzzle to end of grip. Prefer one that doesn't say "assault rifle" on the outside.
For sale in Yakima
A3 Tactical folding brace with a gear head works tail hook, came on my stribog SP9A3 when I bought it. Did a form 1 on the gun and put a stock on it before I ever fired it.
$250 for both items (pricing based on cheapest price I found for both items).
Willing to ship on...
Catch and release. Cool as hell, comfortable and longer LOP than even the minimalist plus sig stock
$175
Will trade for a PMM or OG SIG Kate Moss folding stock with pic hinge
