Proteins often fold in a way that the hydrophobic residues are buried in the core, and not exposed to the solvent. Glycoproteins have sugar molecules attached post-translationally to a protein molecule. These sugar groups have many hydroxyl groups. These hydroxyl groups impart hydrophilic character to glycoproteins, and not hydrophobic property.

Water molecules surrounding hydrophilic molecules have ____________ entropy relative to those surrounding hydrophobic molecules. Hydrophobic molecules (such as lipids) can associate together in an aqueous solution. The dissociation of these molecules (such that they are free in solution) would be thermodynamically ____________. Water molecules surrounding hydrophilic molecules have hydrophobic molecules. Hydrophobic molecules (such as lipids) can associate together in an aqueous solution. The dissociation of these molecules (such that they are free in solution) would be thermodynamically entropy relative to...
3. Nonpolar molecules that repel water molecules are said to be hydrophobic; molecules having ion-dipole interaction or that form a hydrogen bond with water molecules are said to be hydrophilic. For complicated organic compounds, we normally refer to the nonpolar end (with primarily C and H) as the hydrophobic end, and the region with the multiple polar functional groups (i.e., −OH and −NH2) as the hydrophilic end. Please determine the hydrophobic and hydrophilic ends for benzyl alcohol.
Currently studying for a final for cell biology. The topic is on hydrophobic (hormone) signaling molecules that provoke a slow lasting response. The professor said hormones are hydrophobic and must be carried around by soluble protein. They are membrane diffusible and far-reaching (systemic)... what does far-reaching systemic mean in cell biology? What is systemic??
Explain why hydrophobic molecules aggregate together when placed in water and aqueous buffers.
Soap molecules have dual properties; one end of the molecule is hydrophobic and the other is hydrophilic. What are the intermolecular forces that lead to the hyrophobic and hydrophilic properties? Be specific!
It looks like a hydrophobic "pocket" in mdm-2 interacts with several hydrophobic amino acids in 2. p53. What does hydrophobic mean and tell why the amino acids Phe, Leu and Trp are hydrophobic (what do you need to look at to tell if it is hydrophobic or not). Why do these hydrophobic molecules interact with each other?
1-The long hydrocarbon tails of soap molecules are: a-hydrophobic and attracted to water b- hydrophilic and attract to oils c- hydrophilic and attract to water d- hydrophobic and attract to oils 2- A balloon originally had a volume of 4.39 L at 44 C and a pressure of 729 torr. The balloon must be cooled to... C to reduce its volume to 3.78 L (at constant pressure). a- 0.00 C b-273 C c- 72.9 C d- 38.0 C
Hydrophobic molecules would contairn bonds Select one or more: a. nonpolar covalent b. polar covalent c. hydrogen d. ionic

Surfacants are molecules with a hydrophillic head group (maybe charged and a hydrophobic (nonpolar) tail. Individually, the hydrophillic head group of a surfactant could interact with water molecules through intermolecular forces and thus decrease the surface tension compared to pure water. At a certain concentration, surfactants in water can aggregate spontaneously to form micelles which has the hydrophillic head groups pointing out towards the water and the nonpolar tails are kept inward toward the micelle center. Explain in 3 sentences...
