Amazing! The penny has finally dropped... thank you so very much for explaining this in an easy to understand way, this will really help me with my biochemistry 1st year exam at university on Wednesday, you’ve literally explained something that I’ve been struggling with all year, when my lecturer couldn’t; you’re an absolute STAR *****

[@zakpasternak2930]

Thank you so much this video was by far the best I could find on donors and acceptors. You're explanations are so clear. The fog is gone.

Understood this 5 years ago, the concept was lost to me over the years. brilliant refresher , thanks.

[@Mrpandaaable]

Finally I understand this, best explanation I've found, cheers!

Perfect and very helpful, thank you!!

[@MrKamaal010]

Thank you so much. Could you explain why the side chain of Arginine cannot accept any hydrogens?

[@lifeisbeautiful3083]

Perfect explanation!

[@jasminesanchez5317]

This helped so much. Thank you!

[@millykunda4537]

This helped a lot... Thank you!!!

[@mothernaturesbitch.]

Amazing video extremely helpful thank you.

Thanks alot!

What happens if the carboxylic group has donated its hydrogen and has a formal charge (+), can it form a hydrogen bond? Or would it be considered dipole-ion?

[@user-yg6zl7py8t]

isnt it like coordinate covalent bond?
one atomedonate and the other accept .?

[@saratfkh8227]

OMG THAAANK YOUUUUUUUU I FCKN LOOOOVE U !!!!

[@shingekiii8302]

for C-SO3- (not allylic) would this be a hydrogen bond acceptor?

[@BiochemistrywithDrMauser]

All oxygens are hydrogen bond acceptors, so likely yes!
