title: Hydrogen exchange studies of protein structure.
abstract: Hydrogen exchange techniques, with their residue-level specificity, exquisite sensitivity, and adaptability to many solution conditions, are becoming essential to the study of protein stability, folding and dynamics. Recent studies have elucidated the structures of intermediates formed transiently during protein folding and rare partially folded ensembles present at equilibrium. Analysis of hydrogen exchange mechanisms has revealed protein stability and kinetics at the level of individual residues.
