Abstract
The geometries of the contacts between monosaccharides and aromatic rings of amino acids found in X-ray crystallography structures, in the Protein Data Bank (PDB), were analyzed, while the energies of the interactions were calculated using quantum chemical method. We found 1913 sugar/aromatic ring contacts, 1054 of them (55%) with CH/π interactions and 859 of them (45%) without CH/π interactions. We showed that only the carbohydrate/aromatic...
