As I understand it is a weak hydrogen bond interaction, but not impossible.

Maybe this reference will help you:

L. Shimoni and J. P. Glusker
"Hydrogen bonding motifs of protein side chains: Descriptions of binding of arginine and amide groups"
Protein Structure (1995), 4, 65-74

There are a few web pages were you can find N-H -- N hydrogen bond definitions. For example: http://www.lsbu.ac.uk/water/hbond.html

I hope that helps,

Dear Karen,

this hydrogen bond is rather impossible, unless you work at a very basic pH or in a very specific environment. Are you sure that there is no other interpretation of your electron density?

Greetings

Dear All,

I was wondering if you know of some references with regard to hydrogen bond interactions between a guanidium group of an Arg residue with another amine group in any structure? Thanks for your help.


Karen
