Title	Proton Transfer in Biomolecules Facilitated by Water: Quantum Chemical Investigations
Author	Sungyul Lee
Keywords	Proton transfer, Biomolecule, Water
Abstract	We present a brief review for theoretical/computational studies of proton transfer processes of some simple biomolecules promoted by microsolvating water molecules. Focus is given on the relative stability of the canonical vs. zwitterionic forms of amino acids, tautomeric forms of the DNA base adenine, and the biologically active vs. inactive forms of nicotine. The biochemical implications of these findings are also discussed.
