Mutation of exposed hydrophobic amino acids to arginine to increase protein stability

BACKGROUND: One strategy to increase the stability of proteins is to reduce the area of water-accessible hydrophobic surface. RESULTS: In order to test it, we replaced 14 solvent-exposed hydrophobic residues of acetylcholinesterase by arginine. The stabilities of the resulting proteins were tested u...
