Hydrogen Bonds Determining the Conformation of Isolated Amino Acid Residues in Proteins: Re‐Examination of the Fully Extended C5 Structures
Hydrogen bonds contribute substantially to the stabilisation of specific three‐dimensional structures of peptides. The C5 hydrogen bond is an intraresidue interaction, which appears to contribute to the stabilisation of fully extended residue conformations, with backbone torsion angles (φ, ψ) lying close to ±180°. The...
