Abstract excerpt
In order to understand the mechanism of protein stability and to develop a simple method for predicting mutation-induced stability changes, we analyzed the relationship between stability changes caused by buried mutations and changes in 48 amino acid properties. As expected from the importance of hydrophobicity, properties reflecting hydrophobicity are strongly correlated with the stability of proteins. We found...
