Thermodynamic parameters for pp32 L60A unfolding by pressure and urea

NMR observable
Perturbation/unfolding model Unfolded state methyl peak ∼0.92 ppm Unfolded state methyl peak ∼0.85 ppm Folded state backbone –NH <all residues> Trp155 indole NH unfolded state peak CD*
L60A pressure/two-state peaks ΔG −1.7 ± 0.2 −1.7 ± 0.3 −2.0 ± 0.4 −1.8 ± 0.1
ΔV 88 ± 9 92 ± 12 138 ± 22 63 ± 3
L60A pressure/three-state NI ΔG −2.0 ± 0.4
ΔV 126 ± 18
L60A pressure/three-state IU ΔG −0.6 ± 0.4
ΔV 24 ± 11
L60A urea/two-state peaks ΔG −3.8 ± 0.4 −4.0 ± 0.6 −2.6 ± 0.5 −3.6 ± 0.2 −4.1 ± 0.1
m value 2.4 ± 0.3 2.5 ± 0.4 2.0 ± 0.3 2.3 ± 0.1 2.61 ± 0.01*

ΔG and ΔV values are in kilocalories⋅mole−1 and milliliter−1. m values are in kilocalorie−1⋅mole−1⋅molar−1. Individual values are the fitted value ± SE of the least-squares fit. Backbone NH are the mean ± SD over all residues. Fluorescence results are the average of least-square fits of three independent experiments ± SEM.

Dao et al. (21).

Only residues showing intermediate peaks were fit to three-state transition. Intensity profiles from all other residues were fit to a two-state model.
