Abstract excerpt
To understand the role of non-Gly residues in the left-handed helical conformation for the conformational stability of a protein, the non-Gly to Gly and Ala mutations at six left-handed residues (R21, Y38, R50, Q58, H78, and N118) of the human lysozyme were examined. The thermodynamic parameters for denaturation were determined using a differential scanning calorimeter, and the crystal structures were analyzed by...
