Hydrophobic Bonding

Definition of Hydrophobic Bonding from the PharmacyDictionary.in

Hydrophobic Bonding

A type of bonding in an enzyme-substrate or in a drug-drug receptor complex formation in which the water structure of the enzyme protein (the receptor) becomes less structured and shifts to other positions on the protein (or receptor) molecule. This entropy shift is the driving force for a perturbation (shape change) in the molecule
