Abstract excerpt
Alignment of homologous amino acid sequences reveals that insertion mutations are fairly common in evolution. Hitherto, the structural consequences of insertion mutations on the surface and in the interior of proteins of known structures have received little attention. We report here the high-resolution X-ray crystal structures of 2 site-directed insertion mutants of staphylococcal nuclease. The structure of the...
