By converting their data into sounds, scientists discovered how hydrogen bonds contribute to the lightning-fast gyrations that transform a string of amino acids into a functional, folded protein.

Hydrogen atoms are close together. The electron from each atom feels the attraction from the proton in the nucleus of the other atom. This attraction pulls the atoms together and the electrons are ...

Both ethanol and ether have the same molecular mass, however, their melting points and boiling points are different due to the ethanol containing hydrogen bonding. Ether is a symmetrical molecule ...

There were also “Highways,” where the correct bonds would form very quickly ... so you can get a sense of the temporal changes in the hydrogen bonding that are harder to get at visually,” said Ford.

These include wobble base pairs, such as G-U and I-A (inosine-adenine), which have a slightly different geometry and hydrogen bonding pattern. Non-Watson-Crick base pairs can play important roles in ...
