Abstract excerpt
Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) relaxation dispersion experiments establish that at room temperature, the L99A cavity mutant of T4 lysozyme (L99A T4L) interconverts between two compact folded conformations on the millisecond timescale. These include the native state in which the sidechain of Phe114 is exposed to solvent (E state) and a near-native minor state in which the aromatic moiety of Phe114 is buried in...
