Transcript
• Metal coordination in GOLD is modelled as ’pseudo-hydrogen bonding’. Metal-ligand interactions will typically involve the metal binding to, for example, carboxylate ions, deprotonated histidines (i.e. negatively charged), and phenolates. Therefore metals can be considered to bind to H-bond acceptors and the metal will compete with H-bond donors for interaction. This ends the tutorial. 188 GOLD User Guide
