Role of Backbone Solvation in Determining Thermodynamic β Propensities of the Amino Acids

There is a paradox concerning the β propensities of the amino acids: the amino acids with the highest β propensities such as valine and isoleucine have the highest tendency to desolvate the peptide backbone, which should result in a loss of stability. Nevertheless, backbone solvation, calculated as...
