Myths and Verities in Protein Folding Theories

It all started from the misinterpretation of Schellman's experiments which were carried out in the mid-1950s, and which were later encapsulated by the so-called Hydrogen-bond inventory argument." As a result, hydrogen bonding was ignored in protein folding ; along with that a whole repertoire of other possible hydrophilic effects were not even considered. Against this background the hydrophobic effects, as suggested by Kauzmann, became the single most important effects in protein folding."--Page 4 de la couverture.
