Hydrophobic Interactions
Abstract
Recent advances in theoretical and experimental studies of hydrophobic interactions are reviewed. The theory of water structure as applied to hydrophobic bonding, theoretical estimates for the free energy of unfolding of proteins, and the statistical mechanical theory of hydrophobic bonding in polyamino acids are summarized. Experimental estimates of the thermodynamic parameters of the hydrophobic bond can be obtained from solubility and dimerization data of low molecular weight compounds. Recent studies of the interaction of proteins with nonpolar solutes are discussed. Hydrophobic bonds can also be important in various other kinds of interactions involving proteins. The observed effect of urea is mentioned, although no theoretical interpretation of this effect is available yet. In conclusion the methods available for the detection of hydrophobic interactions are reviewed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
