    Hydrogen bonds Between polar groups of amino acid side chains (histidine, lysine, glutamic acid) and phosphate ions have been formed which is studied by infrared spectroscopy. Proton transfer from amino acid groups to phosphate occur mainly in case that tribasic and dibasic phosphate ions take part in hydrogen bonds.
