The Role of Proton Transfer on Mutations
Hydrogen bonds play a critical role in nucleobase studies as they encode genes, map protein structures, provide stability to the base pairs, and are involved in spontaneous and induced mutations. Proton transfer mechanism is a critical phenomenon that is related to the acid–base characteristics of t...
