Ala16
and Leu49 are two of the most important residues constituting the main hydrophobic
core of WT-CI2.A.
GdnHCl denatured
fluorescence curve.
Left: LA49(I)+WT(II)
Right: AG16(I)+WT(II)
(Ex 280nm, Em 356nm)
B.By stopped-flow fluorescence:
(Left hand side)
Top: LA49(I)+WT(II)
and AG16(I)+WT(II)
Meddle: "Slower phase" of LA49(I)+WT(II)
Bottom: "Slower phase" of AG16(I)+WT(II)
The
result showed that LA49(I)+WT(II)
and AG16(I)+WT(II) were described by two-state transition, and they did
not populate a stable intermediate.
