Amphipathic solvation of indole: implications for the role of tryptophan in membrane proteins.
- Abstract:
-
The microscopic structure of the tryptophan side chain, indole, in an amphiphilic environment has been investigated using a combination of neutron diffraction measurements and simulations in solution. The results show that indole is preferentially solvated by hydrogen bonding interactions between water and alcohol -OH groups rather than the interaction being dominated by indole-methyl interactions. This has implications for understanding how tryptophan interacts with the amphipathic membrane ...
