Protein stabilisation by compatible solutes: effect of mannosylglycerate on unfolding thermodynamics and activity of ribonuclease A.

Differential scanning calorimetry, optical spectroscopy, and activity measurements were used to investigate the effect of mannosylglycerate, a negatively charged osmolyte widely distributed among thermophilic and hyperthermophilic archaea and bacteria, on the thermal unfolding of ribonuclease A (RNa...
