Role of p<i>K</i><sub>A</sub> in Charge Regulation and Conformation of Various Peptide Sequences
Peptides containing amino acids with ionisable side chains represent a typical example of weak ampholytes, that is, molecules with multiple titratable acid and base groups, which generally exhibit charge regulating properties upon changes in pH. Charged groups on an ampholyte interact electrostatica...
