Six single substitution mutations, V66F, V66G, V66N, V66Q, V66S, V66T, and V66Y, were made in the background of a highly stable triple mutant (P117G, H124L, and S128A) of staphylococcal nuclease. The thermodynamic stabilities of wild type staphylococ

A glutamic acid was buried in the hydrophobic core of staphylococcal nuclease by replacement of Val-66. Its pK(a) was measured with equilibrium thermodynamic methods. It was 4.3 units higher than the pK(a) of Glu in water. This increase was comparabl

The dielectric inside a protein is a key physical determinant of the magnitude of electrostatic interactions in proteins. We have measured this dielectric phenomenologically, in terms of the dielectric that needs to be used with the Born equation in

Environmental variables can exert significant influences on the folding stability of a protein, and elucidating these influences provides insight on the determinants of protein stability. Here, experimental data on the stability of FKBP12 are reporte

To examine the importance of side chain packing to protein stability, each of the 11 leucines in staphylococcal nuclease was substituted with isoleucine and valine. The nine valines were substituted with leucine and isoleucine, while the five isoleuc

The biological activity of some proteins is known to be sensitive to oxidative damage caused by a variety of oxidants. The model protein staphylococcal nuclease was used to explore the effect on protein structural stability of oxidizing methionine to

The M32L substitution mutation of staphylococcal nuclease was made to test the theoretical prediction by Yamaotsu, Moriguchi and Hirono that it would be approximately 1.6 kcal/mol more stable than the wild-type protein. Instead M32L and the closely r
