Abstract excerpt
The thermodynamic and structural cooperativity between the Ser45- and D128-biotin hydrogen bonds was measured by calorimetric and X-ray crystallographic studies of the S45A/D128A double mutant of streptavidin. The double mutant exhibits a binding affinity approximately 2x10(7) times lower than that of wild-type streptavidin at 25 degrees C. The corresponding reduction in binding free energy (DeltaDeltaG) of 10.1...
