Abstract excerpt
The thermodynamic change in the binding of Ca2+ to a mutant human lysozyme having an engineered Ca2+ binding site (Kuroki, R., Taniyama, Y., Seko, C., Nakamura, H., Kikuchi, M., and Ikehara, M. (1989) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 86, 6903-6907) was analyzed by calorimetry and interpreted in terms of structural information obtained from x-ray crystallography. It was found that the enthalpic contribution for the...
