Relative dimer to monomer ratio of the Cys mutants as compared to that of the ICL1-Xa2 in the absence of β-ME.
Relative dimer to monomer ratio of the Cys mutants as compared to that of the ICL1-Xa2 in the presence of β-ME.
Significant difference (p<0.05) in dimer to monomer ratio of the receptors in non-reducing and reducing conditions is indicated by “*”.
The dimer to monomer ratio of the mutants of the all the mutants was normalized to that of the ICL1-Xa2. The standard deviation of the relative dimer to monomer ratio for all receptors was within ±0.6.
