Association of proteins
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 June 2009
Summary
A review is presented of the various inter molecular forces important in stabilizing protein structure and association. Emphasis is put on entropic as well as enthalpic contributions to the free energy. The factors affecting size and size distribution in protein aggregates are discussed. A theory is presented for the size distribution of casein micelles, taking into account the spherical nature of the micelles and the importance of surface repulsive forces in limiting size.
