Based on an extensive thermodynamic analysis of the stability of apo-dimer and apo-monomer forms of these mutants, we classify the mutations into the following groups: 70 out of 75 mutations in SOD1 lead to (i) decreased dimer stability, and/or (ii) increased dimer dissociation, compared to wild type, and four mutations lead to (iii) decreased monomer stability compared to wild type.
