Example sentences for: side-chain

How can you use “side-chain” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Protein threading [ 19 20 21 22 ] and side-chain packing [ 23 24 25 26 ] techniques have been applied in molecular mechanics based MHC-peptide binding predictions.
This implies that the backbone atoms in the MHC molecules play a secondary role in the binding of the peptide; it is the interaction between the sidechain atoms in the MHC molecules with both side-chain and backbone atoms in the peptide what determines the binding.
Development of an efficient energy function for the accurate prediction of both backbone and side-chain conformations followed by an effective MHC-peptide interaction function will help to quantify the differences in peptide binding caused by MHC polymorphism and peptide diversity.
The efficient prediction of peptide side-chain conformations in the groove has been shown mainly due to van der Waals contribution.
Here we describe the introduction of other substitutions of Val29 that seek to determine the role of the size of the hydrophobic side-chain.
