Abstract excerpt
Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI, EC 5.3.4.1) is a chaperone and catalyzes the formation and rearrangement of disulfide bonds in proteins. Domain c-(463-491), containing 18 acidic residues, is an interesting and important C-terminal extension of PDI. In this study, the PDI mutant abb'a', in which domain c is truncated, was used to investigate the relationship between the C-terminal structure and chaperone...
