Hydrogen-Bond Network Promotes Water Splitting on the TiO2 Surface
, 2022 Breaking the strong covalent O–H bond of an isolated H2O molecule is difficult, but it can be largely facilitated when the H2O molecule is connected with others through hydrogen-bonding.

Conserved binding mode but diverse interfaces of MreC‐PBP2 interactions
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The crystal structure of abMreC reveals a conserved two β‐barrel architecture and provides structural insights into its role within the bacterial elongasome. The abMreC–abPBP2 complex model identifies the molecular basis of MreC‐mediated PBP2 recognition, contributing to the regulation of peptidoglycan synthesis.

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

A model for the hydrogen bond [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1975 A model of the linear hydrogen bond has been devised which is characterized by three physical parameters of the isolated electron donor and proton donor molecules: μ A-H , the bond dipole moment; Δ I , the difference in ionization potential between that

Structural and biochemical analysis of a B12 superbinder
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.BtuG proteins are vitamin B12 scavengers in Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, a dominant human gut bacterium. We present crystal structures of three BtuG homologs bound to cobalamin and its precursor cobinamide, revealing picomolar binding affinities, among the highest known for any natural protein.
