SUWA: A hyperstable artificial protein that does not denature in high temperatures above 100C

Phys.org   -   Scientific News Websites

Proteins denature, or "cook" in heat, irreversibly changing their structure, like how an egg boils or a slab of sirloin turns to steak. This prevents proteins from being used in applications where they would need to withstand heat. Scien...
