Protein Denaturation
Linked via "SDS"
Urea and Guanidinium Chloride (GdnHCl): These compounds are highly effective chaotropic agents. Their mechanism is thought to involve direct interaction with the peptide backbone via hydrogen bonding, which competes with the internal hydrogen bonds of the protein. GdnHCl is generally regarded as more potent than urea, often showing a higher linear dependency on concentration for unfolding equilibrium constants.
