Protein Stability, Folding, Disaggregation and Etiology of Conformational Malfunctions
Estimation of protein stability is important for many reasons: first providing an understanding of the basic thermodynamics of the process of folding, protein engineering, and protein stability plays important role in biotechnology especially in food and protein drug design. Today, proteins are used in many branches, including industrial processes, pharmaceutical industry, and medical fields. A...

متن کاملContribution of water molecules in the interior of a protein to the conformational stability.
Water molecules frequently occur in the interior of globular proteins. To elucidate the contribution of buried water molecules to the conformational stability of a protein, we examined the crystal structures and the thermodynamic parameters of denaturation of six Ile to Ala/Gly mutant human lysozymes, in which a cavity is created at each mutation site by the substitution of a smaller side-chain...
متن کاملDefining the role of salt bridges in protein stability.
Although the energetic balance of forces stabilizing proteins has been established qualitatively over the last decades, quantification of the energetic contribution of particular interactions still poses serious problems. The reasons are the strong cooperativity and the interdependence ofnoncovalent interactions. Salt bridges are a typical example. One expects that ionizable side chains frequen...
متن کاملElimination of local bridges
Let K be a subgraph of G. It is shown that if G is 3–connected moduloK then it is possible to replace branches ofK by other branches joining same pairs of main vertices of K such that G has no local bridges with respect to the new subgraph K. A linear time algorithm is presented that either performs such a task, or finds a Kuratowski subgraph K5 or K3,3 in a subgraph of G formed by a branch e a...
