摘要: The structural basis of the low reorganization energy cupredoxins has long been debated. These proteins reconcile a conformationally heterogeneous and exposed metal-chelating site with highly rigid copper center required for efficient electron transfer. Here we combine single-molecule mechanical unfolding experiments statistical analysis computer simulations to show that metal-binding region apo-azurin is mechanically flexible high stability imparted by binding. pathway metal depends on pulling residue suggests partial could be facilitated physical interaction certain regions redox protein.
