Abstract

A method is described for the inclusion of the effects of hydration in empirical conformational energy computations on polypeptides. The free energy of hydration is composed of additive contributions of various functional groups. The hydration of each group is assumed to be proportional to the accessible surface area of the group. The constants of proportionality, representing the free energy of hydration per unit area of accessible surface, have been evaluated for seven classes of groups (occurring in peptides) by least-squares fitting to experimental free energies of solution of small monofunctional aliphatic and aromatic molecules. The same method has also been applied to the modeling of the enthalpy and heat capacity of hydration, each of which is computed from the accessible surface area.

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.
