# Results
## Protein production and baseline values
In total, 117 proteins, including native BglB, were purified with immobilized metal affinity chromatography and eluted in 200 μL HEPES buffer. Of the 117 proteins synthesized, 79 proteins express and purify as soluble protein. Greater than 65% of mutants maintained the yields obtained by native BglB while roughly 30% did not express and purify as a soluble protein above our limit of detection (0.1 mg/mL) for protein yield after purification based on A280 and SDS-PAGE. Of the
85 79 proteins with expression, 69 mutants displayed a melting temperature that fit to our logistic equation. Native BglB displayed an average melting temperature of 39.6 C.
[Summarize protein production specifics]
## Thermal stability of mutants compared to wild type
Across
all 69 point mutations, the average melting temperature was 38.9 degrees C (plus or minus
__ C) __C) while the average kurtosis was -0.7501861.
__% 58% of mutations were within one degree of the native
BglB. The BglB, indicating the overall effect of point mutations was minimal on
melting temperature, suggesting single point mutations do not illicit a strong affect on protein structure. The melting temperature range of all point mutations was 33.8 degrees C to 45.3 degrees
C, a deviation of roughly six degrees in either direction from that of native BglB. __% and __% C. 36% of mutations displayed
a higher melting temperature
and lower melting temperature, respectively, than that of native BglB.
