Hydrogen bonding underpins the properties of a vast array of systems spanning a wide variety of scientific fields. From the elegance of base pair interactions in DNA to the symmetry of extended ...

THE hydrogen bond is usually described as unsymmetrical, with the hydrogen atom nearer one of the two bonding atoms, and the energy of bonding is considered as due to electrostatic and delocalization ...

Proteins are made of amino acid chains, or polypeptides. Amino acids have a basic backbone made of an amino group and a carboxyl group, and differ in their side-chains. These polypeptide chains of ...
