Abstract excerpt
The mutant Tyr22Trp/Glu33Tyr/Gly46Ala/Gly48Ala of lambda repressor fragment lambda(6-85) was previously assigned as an incipient downhill folder. We slow down its folding in a cryogenic water-ethylene-glycol solvent (-18 to -28 degrees C). The refolding kinetics are probed by small-angle x-ray scattering, circular dichroism, and fluorescence to measure the radius of gyration, the average secondary structure...
