group.formulas
returns the chemical formulas of each of the 20 common amino acid residues in proteins, as well as the terminal -H and -H (treated as the [H2O] group).
MP90.cp
takes protein
(name of protein) and T
(one or more temperatures in \degC and returns the additive heat capacity (J mol ^{-1}
) of the unfolded protein using values of heat capacities of the residues taken from Makhatadze and Privalov, 1990.
Those authors provided values of heat capacity at six points between 5 and 125 \degC; this function interpolates (using splinefun
) values at other temperatures.
