## Abstract We describe a system setup that is applicable to all species in the catalytic cycle of cytochrome P450~cam~. The chosen procedure starts from the Xβray coordinates of the ferrous dioxygen complex and follows a protocol that includes the careful assignment of protonation states, comparis

## Abstract In humans, uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase is intimately involved in the synthesis of heme, where the decarboxylation of the uroporphyrinogenβIII occurs in a single catalytic site. Several variants of the mechanistic proposal exist; however, the exact mechanism is still debated. Thus, us
Whenever hydrogen bonding is involved in molecular recognition, the possibility of a proton transfer from the donor to the acceptor arises. In most cases the pK a of the donor is far enough above the pK a of the conjugate acid of the acceptor for it to be clear that no proton transfer will occur. Ho
