Numerous mutations in the loop region of Rop have been produced | Numerous mutations in the loop region of Rop have been produced: | ||
*deletion of 5 a/a of loop [[(1qx8)]] | |||
*site-directed mutants in loop | |||
*replacement and insertion of glycine residues in loop | |||
*restored of heptad pattern in loop region)[[(1NKD)]] | |||
*a single alanine to proline substitution [[(1B6Q)]] (Pro31, unlike Ala31, is more confor-mationally constrained, the dihedral angles of Ala31 in the wild type molecule are prohibited to Pro, and leads to a folding pathway for a thermodynamically less stable conformation.) | |||
*re-engineering topology of the homodimeric ROP protein into a single-chain 4-helix bundle[[(1YO7)]] | |||
*ALA2ILE2-6, repacted the hydrophobic core and a new fold [[(1F4N)]] | |||
