Abstract
The primary sequence dependence of deamidation has been quantitatively explained on the basis of a simple steric and catalytic model. Application to the known deamidation rates of peptides produces a table of coefficients that permits calculation of the known deamidation rates and prediction of deamidation rates for peptide sequences that have not yet been measured. This work permits a better understanding of deamidation, provides a prediction procedure for protein engineering, and facilitates improved computation of peptide and protein primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structure deamidation rates.
