# Hbind -- Identifying hydrogen bonds by donor/acceptor chemistry and geometric constraints

![](docs/sources/images/hbind-logo.png)

Software to rigorously define intermolecular H-bonds by donor/acceptor chemistry and geometric constraints, which was developed, used, and described in detail in

- Raschka, Sebastian, Alex Wolf, Joseph Bemister‐Buffington, and Leslie A. Kuhn (2018) “Protein-ligand interfaces are polarized: discovery of a strong trend for intermolecular hydrogen bonds to favor donors on the protein side with implications for predicting and designing ligand complexes” Journal of Computer-Aided Molecular Design. *Journal of Computer-Aided Molecular Design* (accepted manuscript) [[biorxiv preprint](https://www.biorxiv.org/content/early/2018/02/05/260612)]

[Interactions between an PKCI-substrate analog ([1KPF](https://www.rcsb.org/pdb/explore.do?structureId=1kpf)) with its ligand (adenosine monophsophate) via [HbindViz](https://github.com/rasbt/HbindViz) and [PyMOL](https://pymol.org); hydrogen atoms not shown]

## Installation

Installing Hbind requires [Perl](https://www.perl.org) and the [GCC](https://gcc.gnu.org) compiler, both of which come pre-installed with most Unix- and Linux-based operating systems.

To install Hbind, simply download this repository, unpack it, and navigate into the main Hbind folder. Then, execute the following command in your terminal:

perl install_hbind.pl

Upon successful installation, the Hbind software will be ready to use from the `bin/` subdirectory. To show the help and usage menu execute execute the following command in your terminal:

./bin/hbind -h


```
HBIND Version: 1.0.0

Documentation: http://psa-lab.github.io/Hbind
Raschka, Wolf, Bemister-Buffington, Kuhn (2018)
Protein Structure and Analysis Lab, MSU (http://kuhnlab.bmb.msu.edu)

USAGE:
-p STRING Path to protein PDB file
-l STRING Path to ligand mol2 file (in docked conformation)
-s Include saltbridges in the output
-t Include a summary table in the output
```

Please see the "Usage" section below for more information on how to use Hbind.


## Usage

To execute Hbind, please navigate to its main directory from where you installed it and run the following command to identify the hydrogen bonds in a protein ligand interface:

./bin/hbind -p ./example_files/1KPF.pdb \
-l ./example_files/1KPF_AMP.mol2

Here, 1KPF.pdb is an excerpt from the PDB structure [1KPF](https://www.rcsb.org/pdb/explore.do?structureId=1kpf) (PKCI-substrate analog) with its ligand `1KPF_AMP.mol2` (adenosine monophsophate). The structures are provided in Hbind's subdirectory "[example_files/](./example_files)".

***Before you run Hbind, please make sure that you provide the protein structure in PDB format and the ligand structure in MOL2 format, and please ensure that the ligand's protonation state (hydrogen assignment) is correct.***

To protonate a ligand, tools such as [OpenEye MolCharge](https://docs.eyesopen.com/quacpac/molchargeusage.html) can be used. However, it is recommended to protonate a ligand in presence of its protein environment, for example, by using tools such as [What If](http://swift.cmbi.ru.nl/whatif/) or [Yasara OptHyd](http://www.yasara.org/features.htm).

After running the command from the beginning of this section, the following output should be displayed:

## Hydrogen bond rules

Hbind's rules for identifying hydrogen bonds protein-ligand interfaces are based on the criteria by Ippolito et al. [1] and McDonald and Thornton [2].

#### Hydrogen bond criteria:

- Hydrogen to acceptor distance: 1.5-2.5 Å
- Donor to acceptor distance: 2.4-3.5 Å
- Donor-H-acceptor angle (θ): 120-180°
- Pre-acceptor–acceptor–H angle (φ): 90-180°

(Hydrogen bonds must meet all of these criteria.)

#### Criteria for metal interactions:

- Lone pair atom distance to K or Na: 2.0-2.9 Å
- Lone pair atom distance to Ca, Co, Cu, Fe, Mg, Mn, Ni, or Zn: 1.7-2.6 Å

Additional command line options are available to list longer-range salt bridge interactions (up to 4.5 Å) and the number of hydrophobic contancts between protein and ligand atoms.
