abstract = {Understanding the origin of thermostability is of
fundamental importance in protein biochemistry. Opposing
views on increased or decreased structural rigidity of the
folded state have been put forward in this context. They
have been related to differences in the temporal resolution
of experiments and computations that probe atomic mobility.
Here, we find a significant (p = 0.004) and fair (R2 = 0.46)
correlation between the structural rigidity of a
well-characterized set of 16 mutants of lipase A from
Bacillus subtilis (BsLipA) and their thermodynamic
thermostability. We apply the rigidity theory-based
Constraint Network Analysis (CNA) approach, analyzing
directly and in a time-independent manner the statics of the
BsLipA mutants. We carefully validate the CNA results on
macroscopic and microscopic experimental observables and
probe for their sensitivity with respect to input
structures. Furthermore, we introduce a robust, local
stability measure for predicting thermodynamic
thermostability. Our results complement work that showed for
pairs of homologous proteins that raising the structural
stability is the most common way to obtain a higher
thermostability. Furthermore, they demonstrate that related
series of mutants with only a small number of mutations can
be successfully analyzed by CNA, which suggests that CNA can
be applied prospectively in rational protein design aimed at
higher thermodynamic thermostability.},
