Abstract
Salt-bridges ubiquitously form between oppositely charged moieties in proteins. Here we quantify changes in population of salt-bridged β-hairpin peptides due to added salt, and determine the thermodynamic driving forces and cooperativity of salt-bridge formation under these conditions. We find only a fraction of salt-bridged folded conformations at physiologically relevant salt concentrations.
