This electrostatic attraction, called an ionic bond, is much weaker than a covalent bond of shared electrons. |
Less than a decade ago, the electrostatic plotter was the top-of-the-line plotter. |
The electrostatic free energies depend sensitively on the dielectric constant assigned to the protein interior. |
At the end of the trap, electric fields focus the ions into the heart of an electrostatic mirror. |
Charged and polar residues played an important role due to favorable electrostatic interactions. |
It is the valence of the lipid, not the membrane-bound peptide, that is the more important factor for lateral electrostatic sequestration. |
