The contribution of electrostatic interactions to the collapse of oligoglycine in water
Protein solubility and conformational stability are a result of a balance of interactions both within a protein and between protein and solvent. The electrostatic solvation free energy of oligoglycines, models for the peptide backbone, becomes more favorable with an increasing length, yet longer pep...
