8. Topologically it is not possible to pass from an interlocked to an uninterlocked configuration. However, physically the fictitious intermediate state is a special case of the unfolded state, where all interactions between the two circular chains are turned off.

11. lin on denaturant concentration. However, this difference may arise primarily from the different interactions with the denaturant by the catenated and dimeric variants in the unfolded state.
