Partition coefficients of amino acids and hydrophobic parameters π of their side-chains as measured by thin-layer chromatography☆

TLDR
Partition coefficients in n-octanol-water have been determined for the naturally occurring and some synthetic α-amino acids using thin-layer chromatography in different solvent systems as discussed by the authors.

Carbonic Anhydrase as a Model for Biophysical and Physical-Organic Studies of Proteins and Protein–Ligand Binding

TL;DR: Carbonic anhydrase is a protein that is especially well-suited to serve as a model in many types of studies in biophysics, bioanalysis, the physical-organic chemistry of inhibitor design, and medicinal chemistry.

Almost all about citrulline in mammals.

TL;DR: One of the most promising research directions deals with the administration of citrulline as a more efficient alternative to arginine, especially against underlying splanchnic sequestration of amino acids.

Amino acid side chain parameters for correlation studies in biology and pharmacology.

TL;DR: Fifteen physicochemical descriptors of side chains of the 20 natural and of 26 non-coded amino acids are compiled and simple methods for their evaluation described and it is shown that three principal components account for 66% of the total variance in the available set.

Sample Criteria for Testing Outlying Observations

TL;DR: In this article, the significance of the largest observation in a sample of size $n$ from a normal population was investigated and the authors proposed a new statistic, S^2_n/S^2, to test whether the two largest observations are too large.
