    Abstract

    Intrachain hydrogen bonds are a hallmark of globular proteins. Traditionally, these involve oxygen and nitrogen atoms. The electronic structure of sulfur is compatible with hydrogen bond formation as well. We surveyed a set of 85 high-resolution protein structures in order to evaluate the prevalence and geometry of sulfur-containing hydrogen bonds. This information should be of interest to experimentalists and theoreticians interested in protein structure and protein engineering.
