Protein denaturation with guanidine hydrochloride or urea provides a different estimate of stability depending on the contributions of electrostatic interactions

OD Monera, CM Kay, RS Hodges - Protein Science, 1994 - Wiley Online Library
The objective of this study was to address the question of whether or not urea and guanidine
hydrochloride (GdnHCl) give the same estimates of the stability of a particular protein. We …

Conformational stability and activity of ribonuclease T1 with zero, one, and two intact disulfide bonds.
