Proteins contain mainly weak, conventional hydrogen bonds; however, a few enzymes have low barrier hydrogen bonds (LBHBs) in transition state analog complexes. Hydrogen bonds display variations in physicochemical properties including length, spectroscopic characteristics, and strength.

Low-Barrier Hydrogen Bonds and Enzymatic Catalysis
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 2000Short, strong (low barrier) hydrogen bonds occur when the pK values of the atoms sharing the proton are similar. The overall distance is 2.5 A or less, the deuterium fractionation factor is less than 0.5, the proton NMR chemical shift can approach 20 ppm, and deuterium or tritium substitution causes an up-field change in the chemical shift.

On the Possibility of Detecting Low Barrier Hydrogen Bonds with Kinetic Measurements
Journal of Chemical Information and Computer Sciences, 2003Recent experimental evidence has pointed to the possible presence of a short, strong hydrogen bond in the enzyme-substrate transition states in some biochemical reactions. To date, most experimental measures of these short, strong hydrogen bonds have monitored their equilibrium properties. In this work we show that kinetic measurements can also be used

Strong, Low-Barrier Hydrogen Bonds May Be Available to Enzymes
Biochemistry, 2014The debate over the possible role of strong, low-barrier hydrogen bonds in stabilizing reaction intermediates at enzyme active sites has taken place in the absence of an awareness of the upper limits to the strengths of low-barrier hydrogen bonds involving amino acid side chains. Hydrogen bonds exhibit their maximal strengths in isolation, i.e., in the

Absorption Wavelength Along Chromophore Low-Barrier Hydrogen Bonds
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2021In low-barrier hydrogen bonds (H-bonds), the pKa values for the H-bond donor and acceptor moieties are nearly equal, whereas the redox potential values depend on the H+ position. Spectroscopic details of low-barrier H-bonds remain unclear. Here, we report the absorption wavelength along low-barrier H-bonds in protein environments, using a quantum ...

The basicities of the diad H57-D102 at N(epsilon)2 in the tetrahedral complexes of chymotrypsin with the peptidyl trifluoromethyl ketones (TFK) N-acetyl-L-Leu-DL-Phe-CF3 and N-acetyl-DL-Phe-CF3 have been studied by 1H-NMR. The protons bridging His 57 and Asp 102 in these complexes are engaged in low-barrier hydrogen bonds (LBHBs).

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2017 AbstractWhile NMR and IR spectroscopic signatures and structural characteristics of low‐barrier hydrogen bond (LBHB) formation are well documented in the literature, direct measurement of the LBHB energy is difficult. Here, we show that solid‐state 17O NMR spectroscopy can provide unique information about the energy required to break a LBHB.

Are Short, Low-Barrier Hydrogen Bonds Unusually Strong?
Accounts of Chemical Research, 2010In a symmetric hydrogen bond (H-bond), the hydrogen atom is perfectly centered between the two donor atoms. The energy diagram for hydrogen motion is thus a single-well potential, rather than the double-well potential of a more typical H-bond, in which the hydrogen is covalently bonded to one atom and H-bonded to the other.
