A thermostatistical approach to protein structures

In this study, the relation between the additional heat capacities of proteins have been obtained. The expressions for the increments of enthalpy ΔH, entropy ΔS and Gibbs energy ΔG which are encountered in the dissolving of the proteins in water, have been calculated. Partition functions of proteins are related to the macrothermodynamical quantities with the help of free energies. In order to endeavour the structure of the proteins, the theoretical calculations of thermostatistical mechanics are fitted to the data of experimental results.
