Table 1. Effect of temperature on the molar mass, hydrodynamic radius and polydispersity index of Wt-αA and αAG98R proteins

The asterisk indicates that the protein precipitated on incubation at this temperature. The precipitate was removed by centrifugation and analysis was done using the supernatant containing soluble aggregates. "NA" indicates that soluble proteins were found at nanogram levels. Accurate mass measurements become difficult under these conditions, so data was not analyzed.
