Absorption wavelength along chromophore low-barrier hydrogen bonds
Summary: In 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,

Breaking the low barrier hydrogen bond in a serine protease [PDF]
AbstractThe serine protease subtilisin BPN' is a useful catalyst for peptide synthesis when dissolved in high concentrations of a water‐miscible organic co‐solvent such as N, N‐dimethylformamide (DMF). However, in 50% DMF, the kcat for amide hydrolysis is two orders of magnitude lower than in aqueous solution.

Short hydrogen bonds in the catalytic mechanism of serine proteases [PDF]
The survey of crystallographic data from the Protein Data Bank for 37 structures of trypsin and other serine proteases at a resolution of 0.78–1.28 Å revealed the presence of hydrogen bonds in the active site of the enzymes, which are formed between the ...

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.

In photosystem II (PSII), the O3 and O4 sites of the Mn4CaO5 cluster form hydrogen bonds with D1-His337 and a water molecule (W539), respectively. The low-dose X-ray structure shows that these hydrogen bond distances differ between the two homogeneous ...

Free-base corroles have long been known to be acidic, readily undergoing deprotonation by mild bases and in polar solvents. The conjugate base, however, has not been structurally characterized until now. Presented here is a first crystal structure of a

Short, strong, symmetric, low-barrier hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) are thought to be of special significance. We have been searching for symmetric H-bonds by using the NMR technique of isotopic perturbation.
