Hydrogen tunneling in biology
Chem Biol.
1999 Jul.
Abstract
The mechanistic details of hydrogen transfer in biological systems are not fully understood. The traditional approach has been to use semiclassical transition-state theory. This theory cannot explain many experimental findings, however, so different approaches that emphasize the importance of quantum mechanics and dynamic effects should also be considered.
