Kinetic Traps

Kinetic Traps is a phenomenon in protein folding pathways wherein the folding process is impeded by metastable intermediate states that are thermodynamically stable but structurally non-native, causing the protein to become transiently trapped in local energy minima before reaching the global minimum conformation.
