Abstract

Molecular dynamic simulations of glass transitions in SPC/E water and tuna ferrocytochrome c solution have been performed. The results support the suggestion that glass transitions in proteins are driven by those in the surrounding solvent.

    Citation Excerpt :

    In the high temperature regime (>200 K), the 〈x2〉 values begin to deviate from this linear behavior (Fig. 6). This phenomenon has been studied in previous computational investigations of proteins (92–94). All theoretical and experimental methods find a larger resilience for the Fe site in cyt c than in deoxyMb (Table 1).
