Effect of W62G mutation of hen lysozyme on the folding in vivo.

Abstract excerpt

In previous paper, we showed that W62G mutation caused ill effects at the early stages of folding of the reduced hen lysozyme in vitro. Here, we investigated whether the single mutation brings about drastic turn to in vivo folding of lysozyme. W62G lysozyme was secreted from yeast cells and then purified with ion-exchange chromatography. From the results of gel chromatography and peptide analysis, the species...
