Abstract excerpt
The plant protein dehydrin of the late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) family plays an important role in abiotic stress tolerance. Here, we investigated the structural changes in DHN1 (dehydrin) protein from Zea mays (167 aa) upon exposure to varying temperatures and various concentrations of sodium dodecyl sulfate and trifluoroethanol, using spectroscopic techniques such as CD, fluorescence, and FRET. For this...
