The position, bonding and dynamics of hydrogen atoms in the catalytic centers of proteins are essential for catalysis. The role of short hydrogen bonds in catalysis has remained highly debated and led to establishment of several distinctive geometrical arrangements of hydrogen atoms vis-à-vis the heavier donor and acceptor counterparts, that is, low-barrier, single-well or short canonical hydrogen bonds ...
