Abstract excerpt
The effect of strongly destabilizing mutations, I106A and V108G of Ribonuclease A (RNase A), on its structure and stability has been determined by NMR. The solution structures of these variants are essentially equivalent to RNase A. The exchange rates of the most protected amide protons in RNase A (35 degrees C), the I106A variant (35 degrees C), and the V108G variant (10 degrees C) yield stability values of 9.9,...
