Update on Amino Acid Interactions

A few months ago I wrote a post about amino acid interactions. It showed how much the different amino acids like to be in contact with one another. Now, in celebration of my upcoming paper in Chemical Science, I've updated the figure for surface interactions. It is shown below.

Amino Acid Interactions

I couldn't find a nice table of amino acid interaction energies, so I created one from crystallography data of thousands of protein. Here are the results and an explanation of how I did it. There is also a black and white version in the article which could be nice for printing. I don't know, I printed a pdf but blogger won't host pdfs for me.
