A density functional theory study of the interaction of collagen peptides with hydroxyapatite surfaces

Density functional theory calculations were applied to investigate the binding of four peptide strands, which are important in the collagen protein, to the bone and tooth mineral hydroxyapatite: amphiphilic PRO-HYP-GLY and HYP-PRO-GLY, and hydrophobic PRO-LYS-GLY and PRO-HYL-GLY. The particular pept...
