Abstract excerpt
The structural and energetic perturbations caused by cavity-creating mutations (Leu-41-->Val and Leu-41-->Ala) in the dimeric 4-alpha-helical-bundle protein ROP have been characterized by CD spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Deconvolution of the CD spectra showed a decrease in alpha-helicity as a result of the amino acid exchanges that follows qualitatively the overall decrease in...
