Predicting and Simulating Mutational Effects on Protein Folding Kinetics.

Abstract excerpt

Mutational perturbations of protein structures, i.e., phi-value analysis, are commonly employed to probe the extent of involvement of a particular residue in the rate-determining step(s) of folding. This generally involves the measurement of folding thermodynamic parameters and kinetic rate constants for the wild-type and mutant proteins. While computational approaches have been reasonably successful in...
