Table 3.
Molecular dynamics simulation results. Hydrogen bonds between GCGR and the first five amino acids in GCG, GCG-AIB2, and GCG-AIB2H3. Occupancy represents the number of frames with interactions divided by the total number of frames. ss indicates side chain-side chain hydrogen bonds, while sb indicates backbone-side chain hydrogen bonds.
