Recombinant expression of many mammalian proteins requiresproduction of the protein at below physiological temperatures (i.e.below 37o C). If the protein is expressed at37o C, all you produce is a large mass of aggregatedprotein called an inclusion body. If you express the same proteinat 20o C, you produce a significant amount of soluble,functional protein.
Provide a thermodynamically based reason for why this would betrue.
