Backbone Hydration of α-Helical Peptides : Hydrogen-Bonding and Surface Hydrophobicity/Hydrophilicity

The stability of proteins and small peptides depends on the way they interact with the surrounding water molecules. For small peptides, such as α-helical polyalanine (polyALA), water molecules can weaken the intramolecular hydrogen-bonds (HB) formed between the peptide backbone O and NH groups which...
