Phe-Lys aligns an aromatic phenylalanine with a basic lysine side chain, generating a dipeptide that models π-cation interactions. Hydrophobic and charged surfaces coexist, making it a useful probe for binding-pocket mapping. Researchers examine its conformational ensembles and solvent effects. Applications span peptide-receptor docking studies, enzymatic-specificity assays, and fundamental folding research.
