Dear Eleanor,
Salt bridges are a compromise between entropy and enthalpy. If, say, an
Asp and an Arg side chain are a bit restricted in their freedom and the
charges are close, enthalpy wins, and if they are very exposed, and not
close at all, entropy wins. The enthalpic gain upon protein
How do people decide on what is a salt bridge within a molecule and how to
count them for those Tables?
I have been looking at 2z2f - paper claims some score..-
But there are several residues in alternate conformation
with NZ A to OE1Aand NZ A to OE1B and NZ B to OE1B etc
Is that one
