Introduction

Hydrogen bonds are one most most frequently seen chemical bonds in biomolecules , whether it be in nucleotides, proteins and even in conjugated molecules. Inorder to form a hydrogen bond, 2 highly electronegative atoms are required. Within organisms, in biomolecules nitrogen and oxygen are the 2 atoms with the ability 2 form hydrogen bonds. Here one hydrogen atom is shared between these 2 electronegative atoms. It could be between 2 oxygen atoms, 2 nitrogen atoms or between a nitrogen and an oxygen atom.
