The theoretical model of proteins on the two-dimensional square lattice, introduced previously, is extended to include the specific short-range interactions. Attractive long-range interactions with various specificities and non-specific repulsive long-range interactions in the form of self-avoidance of the polymer chain are also operative in the model. Dynamics of the model protein is studied by a Monte Carlo method. The short-range interactions are found to accelerate the folding and unfolding transitions. Non-specific part of the attractive long-range interactions have a competing effect of decelerating the transitions. When the short-range interactions are weighted beyond a certain extent over the attractive long-range interactions are weighted beyond a certain extent over the attractive long-range interactions, the all-or-none character of the folding and unfolding transitions is destroyed. How the destruction proceeds is quantitatively expressed in terms of the S-H curves. The limiting case of dominance of the specific short-range interactions over the attractive long-range interactions is studied in detail. The lattice polymer in this limit does not behave like a globular protein at all. This observation leads to a reexamination of the currently popular notion of the dominance of the short-range interactions. A new concept of consistency is proposed to replace it. Possible mechanisms of the acceleration of the transitions by the specific short-range interactions are discussed.
