LITERATURE
differential scanning calorimetry reveals that the native state of PMII is irreversibly unfolded, and in the pH range of 6.5-8.0, PMII refolds to a denatured state with higher thermal stability than native state. The denatured state can also be formed upon partially unfolding PMII at pH 11.0 and 37°C for 2 h, followed by adjustment to a pH in the range of 6.5-8.0. While the denatured state can be folded/unfolded reversibly, the native state exists as a kinetically trapped state. The native state is kinetically trapped by an unfolding barrier of 25.5 kcal/mol, and yet once unfolded, is prevented from folding by a comparable folding barrier
