Protein Stability Unpaired H-bond donors and acceptors are found in the hydrophobic core of a protein only at the turns connecting p-strands only at the ends of a-helices rarely only on Pro residues only at the turns connecting p-strands only at the ends of a-helices rarely only on Pro residues ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Protein Stability The correlation between free energy ΔG transfer between the aqueous/organic phases and the surface area of amino acid residues ignores the important contribution of the peptide bond reflects the reduction in solvent-accessible area during protein folding is similar to effects seen with SDS denaturation is only meaningful for the polar amino acids ignores the important contribution of the peptide bond reflects the reduction in solvent-accessible area during protein folding is similar to effects seen with SDS denaturation is only meaningful for the polar amino acids ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
