Hydrogen bonding pattern

The nature of solute-solute and solute-solvent interactions is dependent on the solvent environment. Solvent influences the hydrogen-bonding pattern, solute surface area, and hydrophilic and hydrophobic group exposures.

The (3 strands are either all antiparallel as in this figure or all parallel or mixed as illustrated in following figures, (a) The extended conformation of a (3 strand. Side chains are shown as purple circles. The orientation of the (3 strand is at right angles to those of (b) and (c). A p strand is schematically illustrated as an arrow, from N to C terminus, (bj Schematic illustration of the hydrogen bond pattern in an antiparallel p sheet. Main-chain NH and O atoms within a p sheet are hydrogen bonded to each other.

An important step is to validate the structure, that is, to compare features of the structure to features in known protein structures. This includes localized fit to density, hydrogen bonding patterns, divergence from standard geometry, and much more [12]. Such calculations can highlight where the model requires further improvement. 

Instead, including the protein environment in a QM MM description gives a correct and stable hydrogen-bond pattern at a low computational cost.
