  We study the dynamics of protein folding via statistical energy-landscape
theory. In particular, we concentrate on the local-connectivity case with the
folding progress described by the fraction of native conformations. We obtain
information for the first passage-time (FPT) distribution and its moments. The
results show a dynamic transition temperature below which the FPT distribution
develops a power-law tail, a signature of the intermittency phenomena of the
folding dynamics. We also discuss the possible application of the results to
single-molecule dynamics experiments.
