Protein sequence randomization: efficient estimation of protein stability using knowledge-based potentials.

Abstract excerpt

Modifications of the amino acid sequence generally affect protein stability. Here, we use knowledge-based potentials to estimate the stability of protein structures under sequence variation. Calculations on a variety of protein scaffolds result in a clear distinction of known mutable regions from arbitrarily chosen control patches. For example, randomly changing the sequence of an antibody paratope yields a...
