Low-Barrier Hydrogen Bond in Fujikurin A-D: A Computational Study. [PDF]
ACS Omega, 2022 The compounds Fujikurin A, B, and D, recently isolated from Fusarium fujikuroi, possess intramolecular low-barrier hydrogen bonds (LBHBs), which are hydrogen bonds with a very low-energy barrier for proton transfer. The isolated compounds have a hydrogen-

Direct evidence of a low barrier hydrogen bond in the catalytic triad of a Serine protease. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2018 AbstractSerine proteases are one of the largest groups of enzymes, found in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes, and are responsible for many different functions. The detailed information about the hydrogen-bonds in the catalytic triad (Asp…His…Ser) of these enzymes is of importance in order to fully understand the mechanism of action. The aspartate of the

A new role of low barrier hydrogen bond in mediating protein stability by small molecules [PDF]
bioRxiv, 2021 Low barrier hydrogen bond (LBHB) is a special type of hydrogen bond which occurs where two heteroatoms with similar pKa values share a single proton resulting in an unusually strong and short hydrogen bond. LBHBs in protein play important roles in enzyme
