Parameters were estimated by fitting urea-induced unfolding transitions using nonlinear least-squares as described.42 Uncertainties are standard errors on the mean of at least three titrations.

Unfolding parameters determined using CD could not be obtained for Nank1-5C2 (AG2) and Nank1-5C2 (AG3) due to the existence of a folding intermediate. Conditions: 25 mM Tris•HCl (pH 8.0), 150 mM NaCl, 20 °C.
