Chemical Society reviews - 1 Feb 2007
Cockroft Scott L, Hunter Christopher A
Abstract excerpt
Thermodynamic double-mutant cycles and triple-mutant boxes are widely employed for the experimental quantification of non-covalent interactions and cooperative effects in proteins. This review describes the application of these powerful methodologies to the study of non-covalent interactions in synthetic systems.
