Expert Solution

# Out of 20 basic aminoacids that make the structure of the protein, some aminoacids are hydrophobic and some are hydrophilic in nature. But in general, a protein would be made up of all kinds of aminoacids. Though, the protein is made up of different kinds of aminoacids, the structure and configuration of protein, will be adapted based on the environment (solvent) in which it is located. This is done by the folding of protein.

- If the protein is in hydrophobic environment, all hydrophobic aminoacids will be exposed out and hydrophilic aminoacids will be kept inside.

- If the protein is in hydrophilic environment, all hydrophilic aminoacids will be exposed out.

Therefore, polarity of the solution is more important for the native conformation and function of a protein. It directly affects the conformation of the protein. Sickle cell anaemia is a best example for this condition.
