a

Cm values in molar (M) units. TTR unfolding and refolding were measured by tryptophan fluorescence; tetramer disassembly and reassembly were measured by resveratrol-binding fluorescence.

b

p values measure the significant changes in Cm for the flag-tagged proteins with respect to their non-flag-tagged counterparts. Unpaired Student’s t test: ns (not significant), p > 0.05, * p ≤ 0.05, ** p ≤ 0.01.
