The CD signal at 222 nm was monitored for each protein as a function of temperature from 10–85°C. Spectra were collected every 2.5°C with 5 min allowed for temperature equilibration.
The midpoint of thermal unfolding (given as Tm) was determined as an indicator of transition from a folded to unfolded state. The standard error in each case is less than 2°C.
This protein pair appeared to have two unfolding transitions, which in this case could represent a separation of the two proteins followed by observation of their individual unfolding transitions.
