## Abstract Papain, an endolytic cysteine protease (EC: 3.4.22.2), from __Carica papaya__ latex has been chemically modified using succinic anhydride. This reagent reacts with the amino group of the lysine residues in the enzyme, thereby changing its net charge from positive to negative. The result
The role of kinetics in governing exceptional stability of thermophilic ferredoxins has been explored. Strikingly, unfolding-rate constants (pH 7, 20 jC) are over eight (log 10 ) orders of magnitude slower for the thermophiles than for a large set of unrelated mesophilic proteins. Also at low pH, wh
