RÉSUMÉ
The strength of a multimolecular system depends on the number of interactions that hold it together. Using dynamic force spectroscopy, we show how the kinetic stability of a system decreases as the number of molecular bonds is increased, as predicted by theory. The data raise important considerations for experimental tests of bond strength and, as a paradigm, suggest both routes to and pitfalls in methods for computational simulation of molecular transitions, such as ligand binding and protein folding.
