Line Shape Analysis of 19F NMR-Monitored Chemical Denaturation of a Fold-Switching Protein RfaH Reveals Its Slow Folding Dynamics
The recent discovery of metamorphic proteins, which can switch between multiple conformations under native conditions, has challenged the well-established one sequence-one structure paradigm of protein folding. This is exemplified in the C-terminal domain of the multidomain transcription factor RfaH, which converts from an ?-helical coiled-coil conformation in its autoinhibited state to a ?-barrel conformation upon activation. Here, we use multisite line shape...
