HeX-Bond for molecular engineering, medicinal chemistry applications, materials chemistry, and biological or chemical engineering
Investigators at Colorado State University have discovered a new form of a non-covalent interaction, which is named a hydrogen bond enhanced halogen bond (or HeX-B, for short). The HeX-B was engineered into the enzyme lysozyme to increase the thermal stability of a commonly used enzyme by 1°C and the activity by 15% at elevated temperatures relative...
