The mammalian protein p53 also have both structured and unstructured segments. With its unstructured region at the carboxyl terminus four different proteins.

Thermodynamic measurements indicate that native proteins are only marginally stable under physiological conditions. The free energy required to denature them is ∼0.4 kJ ∙ mol−1 per amino acid residue.

Protein stability is the net balance of forces, which determine whether a protein will be in its native folded conformation or a denatured state.

A fully folded 100-residue protein is only about 40 kJ ∙ mol−1 more stable than its unfolded form (for comparison, the energy required to break a typical hydrogen bond is ∼20 kJ ∙ mol−1).

The combined hydrophobic and hydrophilic tendencies of individual amino acid residues in proteins can be expressed as hydropathies. The greater a side chain’s hydropathy, the more likely it is to occupy the interior of a protein.

Hydrogen bonds, which are central features of protein structures, make only minor contributions to protein stability.
