Abstract excerpt
The folding, misfolding, and inhibitory mechanisms of serpins are linked to both thermodynamic metastability and conformational flexibility. Characterizing the structural distribution of stability and flexibility in serpins in solution is challenging due to their large size and propensity for aggregation. Structural mass spectrometry techniques offer powerful tools for probing the mechanisms of serpin function...
