The content of conserved hydrophobic residues in this hairpin is unusually high, and this suggests that the hairpin may interact with a hydrophobic partner.
We have synthesized hairpin templates bearing propynyl pyrimidine residues to examine their effect on template-directed non-enzymatic oligomerization.
It is into the deep groove that the protein reaches to make specific contact, primarily with residues in the large hairpin loop.
We interpret them to be consequences of the coherent induction of the hairpins in a packet.
Such a study was performed here in the case of the hairpin ribozyme in conjunction with osmotic shocks experiments.
The constant velocity contours provide a simple method of outlining a hairpin vortex packet.
The transverse phase variation is responsible for the formation of hairpin vortices.
The lines pass through the centres of the heads of the hairpin vortices.
