Haven't read through this entire thread, but reading the initial post, I would like to point out that a supernova within a binary star system will lead to oscillations in magnitude.

According to my colleagues with 30+ years of molecular biology experience, if a protein is not tagged for proteasome-mediated degradation, it degrades due to thermal instability. If this is true, there must be some relation between melt temperature and half-life. My hope in posting this is...

True. However, I am specifically inquiring about degradation when this is not the case. For the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, there is usually an identifiable marker--what we call a 'degron tag' (I am coming from synthetic biology background here), and results in a half-life on the scale of...

Is anyone familiar with a way to determine the half-life of a protein from its melt temperature (Tm)? It seems like there ought to be some sort of correlation, be it theoretical or empirical.
