Abstract excerpt
The folding and thermodynamic properties of metal free (apo) superoxide dismutases (SODs) are systematically analyzed using equilibrium guanidinium chloride (GdmCl) curves and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Chemically and structurally diverse amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)-associated mutations (G85R, G93R, E100G, I113T) are introduced into a pseudo-wild-type background that has no free cysteines,...
