The Effect of Proline <i>cis</i>-<i>trans</i> Isomerization on the Folding of the C-Terminal SH2 Domain from p85

SH2 domains are protein domains that modulate protein&#8722;protein interactions through a specific interaction with sequences containing phosphorylated tyrosines. In this work, we analyze the folding pathway of the C-terminal SH2 domain of the p85 regulatory subunit of the protein PI3K, which p...
