Abstract excerpt
Pseudomonas aeruginosa azurin is a blue-copper protein with a beta-barrel fold. Here we report that, at conditions where thermal unfolding of apo-azurin is reversible, the reaction occurs in a single step with a transition midpoint (T(m)) of 69 degrees C (pH 7). The active-site mutation His117Gly creates a cavity in the beta-barrel near the surface but does not perturb the overall fold (T(m) of 64 degrees C, pH...
