Abstract excerpt
We show in this study that the ionisation equilibria of denatured proteins in pure water are inconsistent with the "fully-unfolded" conformation being an extended coil where the residues are isolated from one another by the intervening solvent. The effects of acid and salt on the stability of the barley chymotrypsin inhibitor 2 (CI2) were investigated and the pKA-values of all carboxylate residues in the native...
