N2 - Does sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) denature proteins through electrostatic SDS-protein interactions? We show that a protein completely lacking charged side chains is unfolded by SDS in a manner similar to charged proteins, revealing that formal protein charges are not required for SDS-induced protein unfolding or binding.
