- natural and chimeric sequences with 1:1 stoichiometry [18]. The heterooligomerization is driven by the burial of the hydrophobic surface area and is directed by electrostatic interactions between charged residues that flank the hydrophobic core. However, substituting an α-heptad with a pentad of β- and γ
- results additionally confirm the impact of electrostatic interactions at the e and g positions. The SI values of sequences mutated in these positions show that shortening of the negatively charged side chain in the case of the Glue19Asp exchange, results in a general decline in binding affinity for almost

- monosaccharide units in glycooligomers is particularly attractive with regard to molecular recognition processes. Like thioureas and ureas, guanidines can also form bidentate hydrogen bonds. In addition, because of their positively charged character, guanidines can exert strong electrostatic interactions with

- partially charged in biological systems. Crystal structures of 2 bound to the active site of nNOS show that the aminopyridine group interacts with a glutamate residue (Glu592, rat nNOS), presumably via hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions [8][12]. The aminopyridine ring nitrogen must be
