Abstract excerpt
Understanding the residue-dependent effects of disease-phenotypic mutations in multi-spanning membrane proteins is an essential step toward the development of corrective therapies. As a systematic approach to further elucidate mutant-dependent mis-folding consequences, we prepared two libraries: one consisting of 20 helix-loop-helix ("hairpin") constructs derived from helices 3 and 4 of the human cystic fibrosis...
