Entropic Stabilization of Isolated β-Sheets.

Temperature-dependent electric deflection measurements have been performed for a series of unsolvated alanine-based peptides (Ac-WA-NH, where Ac = acetyl, W = tryptophan, A = alanine, and n = 3, 5, 10, 13, and 15). The measurements are interpreted using Monte Carlo simulations performed with a paral...
