Monomer means the summation of ASA of A- and B-subunits.
A S A n p and A S A p represent accessible surface area of nonpolar (C and S) atoms and polar (N and O) atoms, respectively.
The ASA values were calculated using software [20]. The unit of the ASA value is Å2 . Δ 𝐺 H P was calculated using (1).
