“Configurational contribution to the Soret effect of proteins and ligands – An investigation with density-of-states simulations”
Abstract:
Many of the biological functions of proteins are closely associated with their ability to bind ligands and change conformations in response to changing conditions. Since binding state and conformation of a protein affect its response to a temperature gradient, they may be probed with thermophoresis. In recent years, thermophoretic techniques to investigate biomolecular interactions, quantify ligand binding, and probe conformational changes have become established. […]
