Abstract
PEGged out: Poly(ethylene glycol), a simple biocompatible polymer, can replace natural loop segments in a 56-residue protein domain with a well-defined tertiary structure. Biophysical characterization of chimeras of the protein GB1 coupled with molecular dynamics simulations show that PEG enhances local backbone torsional freedom without compromising the overall protein fold or function.
