Importance of Translational Entropy of Water in Biological Self-Assembly Processes like Protein Folding

We briefly review our studies on the folding/unfolding mechanisms of proteins. In biological self-assembly processes such as protein folding, the number of accessible translational configurations of water in the system increases greatly, leading to a large gain in the water entropy. The usual view l...
