  • Active site of an antibiotic inactivating enzyme determined with neutron crystallography. In the catalytic triad, the position of the hydrogen atom (circled) controls enzyme specificity and activity. When a low-barrier hydrogen bond is present (right), the enzyme turns over ligands 30-fold faster and binds antibiotics 80-fold stronger, compared to a canonical hydrogen bond (left).
    Low-Barrier Hydrogen Bonds Improve Enzyme Interaction
