Stabilization of lambda repressor against thermal denaturation by site-directed Gly----Ala changes in alpha-helix 3.


Abstract

Oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis has been used to replace alpha-helical glycines in the N-terminal domain of lambda repressor with alanines. Since alanine is a significantly better helix-forming residue than glycine, these changes were predicted to have a stabilizing effect. We show that the Gly46----Ala substitution, the Gly48----Ala substitution, and the double substitution increase the melting temperature of the N-terminal domain by 3-6 degrees.
