Abstract
The conformational stability of legumin and legumin-T was evaluated by studying the equilibrium unfolding in the presence of guanidine hydro chloride. The obtained thermodynamic parameters for the folding/unfold ing-reaction (conformational stability Delta G(buffer)(o) at 25 degree s C, its dependence on denaturant concentration m and the half denatur ant concentration value [denaturant](1/2)) provided evidence that only a rather small decrease in the conformational stability of the legumi n after modification to legumin-T occurs under these conditions.
