Optimizing Stability in Dynamic Small-Molecule Binding Proteins.

Abstract excerpt

The function of dynamic proteins is determined by the stability of distinct conformational states and the energy barriers that separate these states. For most dynamic proteins, the molecular details of the energy barriers are not known, implying a fundamental limit to the ability of protein design methods to engineer beneficial mutations without disrupting activity. We hypothesized that designing mutations that...
