Abstract excerpt
Some properties of the K141E mutant of human HSP22 that is expressed in distal hereditary motor neuropathy were investigated. This mutation slightly decreased intrinsic fluorescence of HSP22 and induced changes in the far UV CD spectra that correlate with increase of disordered structure. Destabilized K141E mutant was more susceptible to trypsinolysis than the wild type protein. Mutation K141E did not...
