Characterization of the Unfolding Intermediate State and Equilibrium Unfolding Pathway of Single Chain Monellin

  • Published : 1999.06.01

Abstract

Single chain-monellin (SCM) was recently constructed by fusing the two chains of monellin. From the view of protein folding, SCM serves as an ideal model system especially in tackling ${\alpha}$-helix-${\beta}$-sheet interactions due to the following reasons: First, it consists of simple distinct structural elements (${\alpha}$-helix and ${\beta}$-sheet) which are assembled in a perpendicular manner.(omitted)
