Abstract excerpt
A new computational approach is proposed to probe the importance of residue side chains for the stability of a protein fold. Computational mutations to estimate protein stability (CMEPS) is based on the notion that the binding free energy corresponding to the complexation of a given side chain, considered as a "pseudo-ligand" of the wild type protein, reflects the importance of this side chain to the...
