Mutant bovine odorant-binding protein: Temperature affects the protein stability and dynamics as revealed by infrared spectroscopy and molecular dynamics simulations.

Abstract excerpt

Bovine odorant-binding protein (bOBP), a member of the lipocalin family, presents the so-called 3D "domain-swapped" protein structure. In fact, in solution, it appears as a dimer in which each monomer is composed by the classical lipocalin fold, with a central beta-barrel followed by a stretch of residues and the alpha-helix domain protruding out of the barrel and crossing the dimer interface. Recently, a...
