| 1. | The lipid bilayer of an endothelial cell membrane is a hydrophobic surface.
|
| 2. | SYPRO Orange binds nonspecifically to hydrophobic surfaces, and water strongly quenches its fluorescence.
|
| 3. | Comparison of the hydrophobic surface on the five-stranded beta-sheet of ubiquitin.
|
| 4. | Water on hydrophobic surfaces will exhibit a high contact angle.
|
| 5. | Membrane proteins have hydrophobic surfaces, are relatively flexible and are expressed at relatively low levels.
|
| 6. | Micelles can solubilize membrane proteins by partially encapsulating them and shielding their hydrophobic surfaces from solvent.
|
| 7. | The large ribosomal subunit provides a hydrophobic surface for the hydrophobic collapse step of protein folding.
|
| 8. | A flat hydrophobic surface lies adjacent to the disulfide, which presumably facilitates interaction with other proteins.
|
| 9. | Human skin, for example, is a hydrophobic surface with a contact angle of about 90 degrees.
|
| 10. | The phenomenon of ultrahydrophobicity was first studied by Dettre and Johnson in 1964 using rough hydrophobic surfaces.
