This experiment involves testing protein stability in a varietyof solutions. Describe the effect you suspect each will have on theprotein’s environment (ex: increases pH, competes for hydrogenbonds, increases hydrophobicity, etc.) and predict whether or notthe protein will remain folded. Look up the structures of anychemical you are not familiar with.
