Thermodynamics of stacking interactions in proteins
Literature Information
Using a database of 6166 experimental structures taken from the Protein Data Bank, we have studied pair interactions between planar residues (Phe, Tyr, His, Arg, Glu and Asp) in proteins, known as π–π interactions. On the basis of appropriate coordinates defining the mutual arrangement of two residues, we have calculated 2-D potentials of mean force aimed at determining the stability of the most probable structures for aromatic–aromatic, aromatic–cation and aromatic–anion bound pairs. Our analysis reveals the thermodynamic relevance and the ubiquity of stacked complexes in proteins.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
