Figure 7From: Mechanisms for stabilisation and the maintenance of solubility in proteins from thermophilesSeparation by Born (desolvation) energy of ionisable groups, summed over each protein. (a) Aspartic acid. The inset in this and other panels shows the relative composition for the given amino acid(s). Thus aspartic acid is most common in mesophiles and least in hyperthermophiles. (b) Glutamic acid. (c) All ionisable groups likely to be charged at neutral pH.Back to article page
