Abstract excerpt
The global and local stabilities of a eukaryotic ferricytochrome c variant with an engineered disulfide are examined. The disulfide connects position 20, which is usually a valine, to position 102, which is usually a threonine. The cross-linked variant is approximately 1.2 kcal mol-1 less stable...
