LITERATURE
urea
-
the urea-induced unfolding of the enzyme is a three-state process, where a metastable intermediate conformation state is populated between 3.0-4.0 M. Above 6.0 M urea, the enzyme gets completely unfolded. The transition from the native structure to the partially unfolded metastable state involves about 30% loss of native contacts but little change in the radius of gyration or core hydration properties. The intermediate-to-unfolded state transition is characterized by a large increase in the radius of gyration. Molecular dynamics trajectories simulated in different unfolding conditions suggest that urea destabilizes the enzyme structure weakening hydrophobic interactions and the hydrogen bond network
