Because inhibiting the binding of the IDP p53 to its partner MDM2 has become a promising strategy for the design of anticancer drugs, we carried out metadynamics simulations to study the coupled folding and binding process linking the IDP p53 to MDM2 in atomic detail. Using bias-exchange metadynamics (BE-MetaD) and infrequent metadynamics (InMetaD), we estimated the binding free energy, the unbinding rate, and the binding rate. By analyzing the stable intermediates, we uncovered the role non-native interactions played in the p53-MDM2 binding/unbinding process. We used a three-state model to describe the whole binding/unbinding process and to obtain the corresponding rate constants. Our work shows that the binding of p53 favors an induced-fit mechanism which proceeds in a stepwise fashion. Our results can be helpful for gaining an in-depth understanding of the coupled folding and binding process needed for the design of MDM2 inhibitors.Careful transfer of ions into the gas-phase permits the measurement of protein structures, with ion mobility-mass spectrometry, which provides shape and stoichiometry information. Collision cross sections (CCS) can be obtained from measurements made of the ions mobility through a given gas, and such structural information once obtained should also permit interlaboratory comparisons. However, until recently, there was not a recommended standard form for the reporting of such measurements. In this study, we explore the use of collision cross sect
