Abstract
Relaxation dynamics of metastable RNS folding are modeled by means of a master equation for the distribution of folded-state occupancies. The underlying primary sequence is considered to be random and uncorrelated. The model is tested vis-a`-vis a Monte Carlo simulation of kinetically governed refolding events. The validity of a random energy model is established.
