Abstract

Although recognized in small molecules for quite some time, the implications of halogen bonding in biomolecular systems are only now coming to light. In this study, several systems of proteins in complex with halogenated ligands have been investigated by using a two-layer QM/MM ONIOM methodology. In all cases, the halogen-oxygen distances are shown to be much less than the van der Waals radius sums. Single-point energy calculations unveil that the interaction becomes comparable in magnitude to classical hydrogen bonding. Furthermore, we found that the strength of the interactions attenuates in the order H approximately I > Br > Cl. These results agree well with the characteristics discovered within small model halogen-bonded systems. A detailed analysis of the interactions reveals that halogen bonding interactions are responsible for the different conformation of the molecules in the active site. This study would help to establish such interaction as a potential and effective tool in the context of drug design.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
