Biological effects of deuteronation: ATP synthase as an example

BACKGROUND: In nature, deuterium/hydrogen ratio is ~1/6600, therefore one of ~3300 water (H(2)O) molecules is deuterated (HOD + D(2)O). In body fluids the ratio of deuterons to protons is ~1/15000 because of the lower ionization constant of heavy water. The probability of deuteronation rather than p...
