Abstract excerpt
Nucleoside diphosphate kinase (HsNDK) from extremely halophilic haloarchaeon, Halobacterium salinarum, requires salt at high concentrations for folding. A D148C mutant, in which Asp148 was replaced with Cys, was designed to enhance stability and folding in low salt solution by S-S bond. It showed...
