摘要
In the current three-state protein unfolding model, the two transitions are considered to be independent and each transition is fitted to a two-state unfolding model. This three-state unfolding process is therefore composed of two sequential two-state unfolding processes. In this paper, a modified method is presented to determine the value of the unfolding free energy [Delta G(total)(0)(H2O)] for the three-state unfolding equilibrium of proteins. This method is demonstrated on the apoCopC protein mutant, Y79W-W83F-Cu, which unfolds via a three-state process. The value of Delta G(total)(0)(H2O) calculated using the modified method was found to be more accurate in determining Delta G(total)(0)(H2O) than the previously reported method.
