Aromatic “bonding”: Although known to exist in proteins, aromatic stacking interactions and the energetic factors important for it are not well understood. A systematic investigation of aromatic stacking interactions in a protein model system using a series of fluorinated phenylalanine analogues illustrates the importance of dipole–dipole and dipole–induced‐dipole coupling to the stability and self‐sorting properties of aromatic stacking pairs.
Aromatisches Binden: Zwar sind aromatische Stapelwechselwirkungen in Proteinen bekannt, allerdings sind die energetischen Faktoren nicht gut verstanden. Die Bedeutung von Dipol‐Dipol‐Kupplungen und Kupplungen zwischen Dipolen und induzierten Dipolen für die Stabilität und Selbstorganisation aromatischer Stapelpaare wurde mit einer systematischen Untersuchung unter Verwendung fluorierter Phenylalanin‐Analoga in einem Proteinmodellsystem gezeigt.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
