Backbone Stacking Interactions

Backbone Stacking Interactions is a molecular interaction phenomenon in which adjacent peptide backbone units in a protein or polymer structure engage in non-covalent, primarily electrostatic and van der Waals, stabilizing arrangements due to the alignment of their planar amide groups, distinguishing it from side-chain-mediated stacking by emphasizing the structural and energetic contributions of the polypeptide backbone itself.
