Abstract excerpt
In order to comprehend the domain structure of two beta-tropomyosin (beta-Tm) isoforms (skeletal muscle and smooth muscle beta-Tm) and the influence of the disease-causing mutation Arg91Gly on it, we studied the thermal unfolding of these tropomyosin species by means of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Our results show that the studied point mutation dramatically decreases thermal stability of a...
