Fluorine binds to most metals, forming a very strong bond with Al3+, which can form complexes with metal-binding chelates [13].
The carboxylic acid groups present in sialic acid monosaccharides have relatively high hydrogen bonding stabilization energy with the carbonyl and hydroxyl groups, which can form hydrogen bonding interactions with the H and O atoms of the water molecules.
The degree of interfacial coupling/adhesion between a diamond matrix and a carbon nanotube is captured through interstitial carbon atoms located in the interface, which can form bonds with both the matrix and CNT atoms.
The latter interaction could be thermodynamically favorable since the polymer molecule could potentially provide several coordinating bonds for a Zn2+ ion (which can form up to 6 of them [ 128]).
G/A/U bases often deviate from base pair planes, which can form hydrogen bonds with neighboring base pairs and affects the stabilities of triplets.
The other is a derivatized peripheral part of the porphyrin, which can form hydrogen bonds or participate in electrostatic interactions with the template.
We hypothesized that hibiscus acid and cyanidin-3-glucoside in roselle contains hydroxyl groups in the chemical structure, which can form hydrogen bonds with the polar groups in the allosteric site, situated at the entrance to the catalytic site, where other chemical compounds found in mulberry, chrysanthemum and bael bind.
Apollon, also known as Bruce or BIRC6, is the largest member of the IAP family, containing one baculoviral IAP repeat domain at its N-terminal region and a C-terminal E2 motif, which can form thioester bonds with ubiquitin (Chen et al, 1999).
Furthermore, at the x-position of the N-K-x-D motif, Arf/Arl GTPases (other than the atypical Arl6 and Arl8 GTPases) co-conserve a glutamine (e.g., Gln128Arf1 in Figure 5C), the side chain of which can form hydrogen bonds with the backbone oxygen of the co-conserved alanine preceding this motif or of a residue near the end of the guanine binding loop or of both.
Wild-type Grx2 keeps two cysteine residues which can form a disulfide bond while the C15S mutant keeps one cysteine residue and is not able to form it.
