Description:
Modulation of polypeptide conformation through donor–acceptor transformation of side-chain hydrogen bonding ligands Nature Communications, Published online: 21 July 2017; doi:10.1038/s41467-017-00079-5 Hydrogen bonding plays a major role in determining the tridimensional structure of biopolymers. Here, the authors show that control over a polypeptide conformation can be achieved by altering the donor-acceptor properties of side-chain triazole units via protonation-deprotonation.
