   Nitrogen containing bisphosphonates are the current most used drugs in the class because of their potency. [15] Studies have showed that nitrogen on bisphosphonates forms hydrogen bond with threonine (Thr201) and the carbonyl part of Lysine (Lys200) on target enzyme, therefore enhancing the binding of the complex. Altering the position of ...
