This review further outlined the non-polar and electrostatic contributions of the solvation free energy.
This includes, in particular, polar solvents like ammonia, hydrocyanic acid, and methanol, and possibly non-polar compounds such as methane and ethane.
Included are a number of incidents - or viewpoints about them - that are perhaps less familiar to the non-polar specialist.
However, there do exist a number of basespecific contacts, including non-polar contact of the 5-methyl group of thymidine in the major groove.
Selective permeability to polar and non-polar substances in fertilized eggs is a function of the lipid membrane layer.
For the simulations with and without urea the solvent accessible surface area of polar and non-polar groups were very similar.
The heptane had no effect in removing the membrane, implying that the vitelline membrane may not be made up of non-polar lipids.
The entropy change of hydration of polar and non-polar groups are both positive on folding and so drive the folding process.
