The hydrophobicity index is a measure of the relative hydrophobicity, or how soluble an amino acid is in water. In a protein, hydrophobic amino acids are likely to be found in the interior, whereas hydrophilic amino acids are likely to be in contact with the aqueous environment.

Hydrophobic amino acids are incapable of forming hydrogen bonds with water as they have no, or very small, electrical charges in their structure. In aqueous solution they disrupt the hydrogen bonding structure which is formed between water molecules themselves, as they are unable to contribute to it.

The Role of Hydrophobic Amino Acids in Tertiary Folding ... In the section on amino acid structures we saw that hydrophobic amino acids effectively bond to each other as, by doing so, they are avoiding the surrounding aqueous environment. A globular protein consists of a mixture of hydrophilic and hydrophobic amino acids.

Three Hb S variants containing Glu substitutions at Phe-beta85 and/or Leu-beta88 were expressed in yeast in an effort to evaluate the role of hydrophobic amino acids at these sites in stabilizing F helix conformation of Hb S. ... 0 (Amino Acids)

Hydrophobic residues were chosen by visual examination of the structure and arginine was chosen because the guanidinium group is the most polar of all the common amino-acid residues found in proteins. ...

One strategy to increase the stability of proteins is to reduce the area of water-accessible hydrophobic surface. ... In order to test it, we replaced 14 solvent-exposed hydrophobic residues of acetylcholinesterase by arginine. The stabilities of the resulting proteins were tested using denaturation by high...
