Abstract:The conformational heterogeneity of a folded protein can affect both its function but also stability and folding. We recently discovered and characterized a stabilized double mutant (L49I/I57V) of the protein CI2 and showed that state-of-the-art prediction methods could not predict the increased stability relative to the wild-type protein. Here we have examined whether changed native state dynamics, and resulting entropy changes, can explain the stability changes in the double mutant protein, as well as the tw… Show more
