Mutation of Conserved Histidines Alters Tertiary Structure and Nanomechanics of Consensus Ankyrin Repeats

The conserved TPLH tetrapeptide motif of ankyrin repeats (ARs) plays an important role in stabilizing AR proteins, and histidine (TPLH)-to-arginine (TPLR) mutations in this motif have been associated with a hereditary human anemia, spherocytosis. Here, we used a combination of atomic force microscop...
