Congratulations to Professor Gary Pielak, Claire Stewart, and Ashlee Propst for having their research highlighted on the May issue of Protein Science! Their paper, “Resolving the enthalpy of protein stabilization by macromolecular crowding“, explores a newly developed model of macromolecular crowding that indicated entropy disfavoring folding.
