Abstract:
Equilibrium unfolding experiments on several mutant forms of horse heart cytochrome c were performed. By means of absorbance spectroscopy, the accumulation of an equilibrium intermediate was revealed upon unfolding of Y97V mutant protein, and its structural properties were characterized. The data obtained allow one to conclude that the equilibrium intermediate corresponds to the earliest kinetic intermediate Ic in cytochrome c folding reaction. A comparative analysis of spectral properties of unfolded states of cytochrome c induced by urea or guanidine hydrochloride is presented.

Stability of Substituted Cyclohexanes
The two chair conformations of cyclohexanes undergo rapid interconversion at room temperature. Both forms have identical energies and stabilities, each comprising equal amounts of the equilibrium mixture. Replacing a hydrogen atom with a functional group makes the two conformations energetically non-equivalent.
For example, in...
SN1 Reaction: Stereochemistry
In the first step of an SN1 reaction, the bond between the electrophilic carbon and the leaving group ionizes to generate the carbocation intermediate. The second step of the mechanism is the nucleophilic attack.
In the formed carbocation, the positively charged carbon is sp2 hybridized with a trigonal planar geometry. As all the three substituents lie on the same plane, a plane of symmetry for the...
