The Role of Backbone Hydrogen Bonds in the Transition State for Protein Folding of a PDZ Domain.
Backbone hydrogen bonds are important for the structure and stability of proteins. However, since conventional site-directed mutagenesis cannot be applied to perturb the backbone, the contribution of these hydrogen bonds in protein folding and stability has been assessed only for a very limited set...
