In an aqueous solution, protein conformation is determined by two major factors. one is the formation of the maximum number of hydrogen bonds. the other is the?

Respuesta :

The other is the placement of hydrophobic amino acid residues within the interior of the protein.

What are hydrophobic amino acid?

Amino acid hydrophobicity is often defined by its partitioning between two liquid phases and this property can be important in downstream processing.

Amino acids are grouped according to what their side chains are like.

Glycine (Gly), alanine (Ala), valine (Val), leucine (Leu), isoleucine (Ile), proline (Pro), phenylalanine (Phe), methionine (Met), and tryptophan (Trp) have hydrophobic side chains.

These side chains are composed mostly of carbon and hydrogen, have very small dipole moments, and tend to be repelled from water.
