dc.descriptionThe structures of proteins exhibit secondary elements composed of helices and loops. Comparison of several water-only hydrophobicity scales with the functionalities of two repeat proteins shows that these secondary elements possess water-induced medium-range order that is sometimes similar, but can also be complementary, to structural order. Study of these hitherto "phantom" order parameters promises far-reaching incremental improvements in the theory of protein dynamics. A by-product of the theory is an independent evaluation of the reliability of different hydrophobicity scales.
