"Telah diakui bahwa ikatan hidrogen menahan molekul protein ke konfigurasi asli mereka, dan saya percaya bahwa metode kimia struktural lebih lanjut diterapkan pada masalah fisiologis, akan ditemukan bahwa signifikansi ikatan hidrogen untuk fisiologi lebih besar daripada ikatan apa pun. fitur struktural tunggal lainnya."

--- Linus Pauling

Versi Bahasa Inggris

It has been recognized that hydrogen bonds restrain protein molecules to their native configurations, and I believe that as the methods of structural chemistry are further applied to physiological problems it will be found that the significance of the hydrogen bond for physiology is greater than that of any other single structural feature.
