Chemical Terms : HBDA Functions

The HBDA functions calculate H-bond forming properties of compounds such as the number of hydrogen bond donors or acceptors in a molecule.

Example

Let's calculate the donor count of the adenine nucleobase!

donorCount()

 

The CT calculation returns 2 as the donor count of adenine.

Let's examine thimine, its pair molecule in the structure of nucleic acids!

We calculate the acceptor count of thymine with CT:

acceptorCount()
