Prediction of reduction potential changes in rubredoxin: a molecular mechanics approach.

Abstract excerpt

Predicting the effects of mutation on the reduction potential of proteins is crucial in understanding how reduction potentials are modulated by the protein environment. Previously, we proposed that an alanine vs. a valine at residue 44 leads to a 50-mV difference in reduction potential found in homologous rubredoxins because of a shift in the polar backbone relative to the iron site due to the different...
