摘要
The enhanced stability of a mesophilic metalloprotein was assessed using biophysical spectroscopies. Significant local structural inter-conversions during thermal insult account for a reorganization of the protein scaffold, without disturbing the active metal site. This cushioning mechanism is proposed to be a generic property of metalloproteins contributing to enhanced stability.
