Thermodynamic Analysis of Protein-Nanoparticle Interactions Links Binding Affinity and Structural Stability

Chathuri S. Kariyawasam, Radha P. Somarathne, Naomi C. Hellard…·Nicholas C. Fitzkee

The paper investigates how protein charge distribution affects adsorption to polystyrene nanoparticles using lysine-to-alanine variants and finds that removing lysine at position 19 enhances binding and stability.
