Abstract excerpt
Protein misfolding causes a wide spectrum of human disease, and therapies that target misfolding are transforming the clinical care of cystic fibrosis. Despite this success, however, very little is known about how disease-causing mutations affect the de novo folding landscape. Here we show that inherited, disease-causing mutations located within the first nucleotide-binding domain (NBD1) of the cystic fibrosis...
