+        suggest that the mechanical stability of the tenth type III
+        domain from fibronectin (FNfn10) is largely determined by a
+        number of critical hydrogen bonds in the peripheral
+        strands. Interestingly, the simulations predict that lowering
+        the pH from 7 to ∼4.7 will increase the mechanical stability
+        of FNfn10 significantly (by ∼33 %) due to the protonation of a
+        few key acidic residues in the A and B strands. To test this
+        simulation prediction, we used single-molecule atomic force
+        microscopy (AFM) to investigate the mechanical stability of
+        FNfn10 at neutral pH and at lower pH where these key residues
+        have been shown to be protonated. Our AFM experimental results
+        show no difference in the mechanical stability of FNfn10 at
+        these different pH values. These results suggest that some
+        simulations may overestimate the role played by electrostatic
+        interactions in determining the mechanical stability of
+        proteins."
