Vieira Física, Astronomía y Matemáticas The role of the supporting medium of water molecules in some protein activities is examined under differentaspects as in the cases of a monomeric peptide, the basic fibroblast growth factor, of a dimeric peptide, thehuman neutrophil peptide 3, of a peptide that acts in non-aqueous environment, the gramicidin A dimer, of awater molecule present in the binding of a co-factor in a phospholipase peptide, and under the general pointof view of the hydrophilic/hydrophobic properties described by a hydropathy scale. These examples illustratethe importance of water in the hydrogen bond formation that is, of main importance in keeping the peptidestructures that cannot be defined without the water contributions. The conclusions confirm that living systemsare like they are because water is an outstanding and abundant molecule present everywhere in living matter. 2004 artículo científico 0103-9733 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=46434113 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=464 Brazilian Journal of Physics application/pdf Sociedade Brasileira de Física Brazilian Journal of Physics (Brasil) Num.1 Vol.34 |
