Abstract
⺠We investigated the role of disulfide bonds in stability and folding of SsMTAPII. ⺠We performed the spectroscopic characterization of SsMTAPII and its mutants. ⺠We carried out thermal and GdmCl-induced unfolding/refolding experiments. ⺠Chemical and thermal unfolding are reversible only under reducing conditions. ⺠Unfolding occurs with dissociation of the native hexamer into denatured monomers.
