Upon drying, the hydrophobic effect ceases, but the dried cells, nevertheless, maintain their cellular organization.
Furthermore, biologically important weak interactions, such as hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonding, are weaker at higher temperatures.
In another possible application, these groups could be part of designed ligands, which may site-specifically penetrate the hydrophobic cores of proteins, possibly inactivating them.
The thioredoxin interaction area is different and contains more hydrophobic residues and three histidines one of them very close to the active site.
The conserved residues are dominated by glycines and internal hydrophobic amino acids and appear to be identical for structural reasons.
In addition to the charged amino acids, certain hydrophobic residues appeared to contribute to the membrane binding and translocation.
The content of conserved hydrophobic residues in this hairpin is unusually high, and this suggests that the hairpin may interact with a hydrophobic partner.
The interactions in the major groove are predominantly hydrophobic.
