This driving force is called the hydrophobic effect, which can be described as the tendency for nonpolar surfaces to interact with each other rather than with water they segregate. They make up most of your body, so we have to understand their structure very well.
In the living cell, folding occurs in a complex and crowded environment, often involving helper proteins, and in some cases it can go awry. An implementation of classical molecular dynamics on parallel computers of increased efficiency has enabled a simulation of protein folding with explicit representation of water for 1 microsecond, about two orders of magnitude longer than the longest simulation of a protein in water reported to date.
