Abstract excerpt
To investigate the role of turns in protein folding, we have characterized the effects of combinatorial and site-directed mutations in the two beta-turns of peptostreptococcal protein L on folding thermodynamics and kinetics. Sequences of folded variants recovered from combinatorial libraries using a phase display selection method were considerably more variable in the second turn than in the first turn. These...
