A view of the hydrophobic effect

NT Southall, KA Dill, ADJ Haymet - The Journal of Physical …, 2002 - ACS Publications
Oil and water do not mix. The disaffinity of oil for water, with its unusual temperature
dependence, is called the hydrophobic effect. It is important to understand the factors …

Heat capacity in proteins

NV Prabhu, KA Sharp - Annu. Rev. Phys. Chem., 2005 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract Heat capacity (Cp) is one of several major thermodynamic quantities commonly
measured in proteins. With more than half a dozen definitions, it is the hardest of these …

Water-mediated hydrophobic interactions

D Ben-Amotz - Annual review of physical chemistry, 2016 - annualreviews.org
Hydrophobic interactions are driven by the combined influence of the direct attraction
between oily solutes and an additional water-mediated interaction whose magnitude (and …

Water's structure around hydrophobic solutes and the iceberg model

N Galamba - The Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2013 - ACS Publications
The structure of water in the hydration shells of small hydrophobic solutes was investigated
through molecular dynamics. The results show that a subset of water molecules in the first …

Observation of immobilized water molecules around hydrophobic groups

YLA Rezus, HJ Bakker - Physical Review Letters, 2007 - APS
We have used femtosecond midinfrared spectroscopy to study the orientational mobility of
water molecules in the hydration shells of hydrophobic groups. Our results show that …

Hydrophobic hydration of poly-N-isopropyl acrylamide: a matter of the mean energetic state of water

I Bischofberger, DCE Calzolari, P De Los Rios… - Scientific reports, 2014 - nature.com
The enthalpically favoured hydration of hydrophobic entities, termed hydrophobic hydration,
impacts the phase behaviour of numerous amphiphiles in water. Here, we show …

Kosmotropes and chaotropes: modelling preferential exclusion, binding and aggregate stability

S Moelbert, B Normand, P De Los Rios - Biophysical chemistry, 2004 - Elsevier
Kosmotropic cosolvents added to an aqueous solution promote the aggregation of
hydrophobic solute particles, while chaotropic cosolvents act to destabilise such aggregates …
