The response of T4 lysozyme to large‐to‐small substitutions within the core and its relation to the hydrophobic effect

To further examine the structural and thermodynamic basis of hydrophobic stabilization in proteins, all of the bulky non‐polar residues that are buried or largely buried within the core of T4 lysozyme were substituted with alanine. In 25 cases, including eight reported previously, it was possible to...
