From canonical to unique: extension of a lipophilicity scale of amino acids to non-standard residues by Antonio Viayna, Paulina Matamoros, David Blázquez-Ruano, William J. Zamora

“…Conclusions: Overall, both models exhibit good correlations with the experimental values, with Model 1 showing lower statistical errors. In addition, our predictions were able to correctly predict the experimental hydrophobicity change due to the number of acetylated lysines in peptide pairs determined by HPLC, suggesting that our scale can be employed for proteomics studies that include post-translational modifications beyond acetylation.…”
