Exploring and Exploiting Ribonuclease 1: from Protein Biochemistry to Protein Engineering by Wralstad, Evans Christian

“…RNase 1 and its bovine homologue RNase A exhibit ubiquitous expression across tissues, a catalytic efficiency within the diffusion-limited regime, and minimal substrate sequence requirements. RNase A has been a favorite model protein of biochemists for over half a century; due to the high level of sequence conservation between RNase A and RNase 1, many observations made for RNase A have corollaries for RNase 1. …”
