Sheu, Sheh-Yi; Schlag, E. W.; Selzle, H. L.; Yang, Dah-Yen
Abstract:
We suggest that the H-bond in proteins not only mirrors the motion of hydrogen in its own atomistic setting but also finds its origin in the collective environment of the hydrogen bond in a global lattice of surrounding H2O mols. This water lattice is being perturbed in its optimal entropic configuration by the motion of the H-bond. Furthermore, bonding interaction with the lattice drop the H-bond energy from some 5 kcal/mol for the pure protein in the absence of H2O, to some 1.6 kcal/mol in the...     »
