Abstract excerpt
Differential scanning calorimetry was used to investigate the thermal unfolding of native alpha-tropomyosin (Tm), wild-type alpha-Tm expressed in Escherichia coli and the wild-type alpha-Tm carrying either of two missense mutations associated with familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, D175N or E180G. Recombinant alpha-Tm was expressed with an N-terminal Ala-Ser extension to substitute for the essential N-terminal...
