Cell surface hydrophobicity and biofilm formation of candida yeast species in different culture media

open access: yesBioscience Journal, 2017
Cell surface adhesion is considered an essential step in the spread, infection and persistence of Candida yeasts in the host. Their ability to adhere on biotic and abiotic surfaces depends on several factors, including hydrophobicity.

Unexpected Trends in the Hydrophobicity of Fluorinated Amino Acids Reflect Competing Changes in Polarity and Conformation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Fluorination can dramatically improve the thermal and proteolytic stability of proteins and their enzymatic activity. Key to the impact of fluorination on protein properties is the hydrophobicity of fluorinated amino acids.

50 years of amino acid hydrophobicity scales: revisiting the capacity for peptide classification

open access: yesBiological Research
BACKGROUND: Physicochemical properties are frequently analyzed to characterize protein-sequences of known and unknown function. Especially the hydrophobicity of amino acids is often used for structural prediction or for the detection of membrane ...
