摘要
Insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1) contains three disulfide bonds. In the presence of denaturant and thiol catalyst, IGF-1 shuffles its native disulfide bends and denatures to form a mixture of scrambled isomers. The composition of scrambled IGF varies under different denaturing conditions. Among the 14 possible scrambled IGF isomers, the yield of the beads-form isomer is shown to be directly proportional to the strength of the denaturing condition. This paper demonstrates a new approach to quantify the extent of unfolding of the denatured protein.
