Role of hydrophobic side chain in urea induced protein denaturation at interface
The molecular mechanism of denaturing ability of urea is still a subject of considerable debate due to two opposing mechanisms: direct and indirect. In the direct mechanism, urea directly disrupts hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions within proteins. On the other hand, the indirect mechanis...
