Structural Stability Effects on Adsorption and Dodecyltrimethylammonium Bromide-Mediated Elutability of Bacteriophage T4 Lysozyme at Silica Surfaces
The effect of structural stability on the adsorption and dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB)-mediated elutability of bacteriophage T4 lysozyme was monitored at hydrophilic and hydrophobic silica surfaces with in situ ellipsometry. Mutant lysozymes were produced by substitution of the isoleucine at amino acid position three, yielding a set of proteins with values of ΔGunfolding ranging from 1.2
