Other Noncovalent Interactions

Kyogoku et al., 1967b). As in DNA, other noncovalent interactions such as tt-tt stacking are often present with these heterocyclic bases. 

COMBINING HYDROGEN BONDING WITH OTHER NONCOVALENT INTERACTIONS... 

Other noncovalent interactions such as the C=0- -F—C type, between a fluorine atom and the carbonyl of an amino acid, may take place in the stabilization of enzyme-inhibitor supramolecular structures This is why the 4-fluorophenyl group is an important motif for the binding pocket, as shown by the one order-of-magnitude enhancement of the affinity by introducing a fluorine on the thrombin inhibitor (Figure 3.5).

N-H of the other chain in a unique fashion. H-bonding interaction along with other noncovalent interactions is mainly accountable for the interaction of DNA and protein with other molecules. 

The energy of hydrogen bonds is greater than most other noncovalent interactions.

Other noncovalent interactions, such as the hydrophobic effect, ionic interactions, or n-n interactions, are even weaker than hydrogen bonding, and suffer...
