Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
V11D the single amino acid replacement is sufficient to favor the monomeric form of the enzyme in the presence of the nondenaturing zwitterionic detergent 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate. The free energy of stabilization of monomeric mutant enzyme V11D is 15 kJ/mol lower than that of the wild-type dimer. Both the steady-state turnover numbers and rates of hydride transfer are reduced in V11D Thermotoga maritima
V126E mutant enzyme remains as a dimer, steady-state turnover numbers and rates of hydride transfer are reduced Thermotoga maritima

the free energy of stabilization of monomeric mutant enzyme V11D is 15 kJ/mol lower than that of the wild-type dimer, while the melting temperature of monomeric mutant enzyme V11D is comparable to that of monomeric DHFR from the thermophile Bacillus stearothermophilus, supporting the hypothesis that oligomerization is required to achieve the thermal stabilities necessary for activity at temperatures optimal for growth of hyperthermophiles Thermotoga maritima
