abstract = {Myoglobin can be trapped in fully folded structures,
partially folded molten globules, and unfolded states under
stable equilibrium conditions. Here, we report an
experimental study on the conformational dynamics of
different folded conformational states of apo- and
holomyoglobin in solution. Global protein diffusion and
internal molecular motions were probed by neutron
time-of-flight and neutron backscattering spectroscopy on
the picosecond and nanosecond time scales. Global protein
diffusion was found to depend on the α-helical content of
the protein suggesting that charges on the macromolecule
increase the short-time diffusion of protein. With regard to
the molten globules, a gel-like phase due to protein
entanglement and interactions with neighbouring
macromolecules was visible due to a reduction of the global
diffusion coefficients on the nanosecond time scale.
Diffusion coefficients, residence and relaxation times of
internal protein dynamics and root mean square displacements
of localised internal motions were determined for the
investigated structural states. The difference in
conformational entropy ΔSconf of the protein between the
unfolded and the partially or fully folded conformations was
extracted from the measured root mean square displacements.
Using thermodynamic parameters from the literature and the
experimentally determined ΔSconf values we could identify
the entropic contribution of the hydration shell ΔShydr of
the different folded states. Our results point out the
relevance of conformational entropy of the protein and the
hydration shell for stability and folding of myoglobin.},
