Strong Solute-Solute Dispersive Interactions in a Protein-Ligand Complex

Overview

The contributions of solute-solute dispersion interactions to binding, thermodynamics have generally been thought to be small, due to the, surmised equality between solute-solvent dispersion interactions prior to, the interaction versus solute-solute dispersion interactions following the, interaction. The thermodynamics of binding of primary alcohols to the, major urinary protein (MUP-I) indicate that this general assumption is not, justified. The enthalpy of binding becomes more favorable with increasing, chain length, whereas the entropy of binding becomes less favorable, both, parameters showing a linear dependence. Despite the hydrophobicity of the, interacting species, these data show that binding is not dominated by the, classical hydrophobic effect, but can be attributed to favorable, ligand-protein dispersion interactions.
