Polymorphic protein phase transitions driven by surface anisotropy.

Abstract excerpt

Phase transitions of proteins are strongly influenced by surface chemical modifications or mutations. Human γD-crystallin (HGD) single-mutants have been extensively studied because they are associated with the onset of juvenile cataract. However, they have also provided a rich library of molecules to examine how specific inter-protein interactions direct protein assembly, providing new insights and valuable...
