A consistent picture of protein dynamics.
Open accessAbstract
Information about the protein dynamics of myoglobin obtained by x-ray and Mössbauer investigations is analyzed and compared with computer simulations. Computer simulations give correct amplitudes of mean-square displacements but fail in the description of the time dependence of motions. Our model describes protein dynamics at physiological temperatures as an overdamped diffusion-like motion in a restricted space. The fluctuations occur around the average conformation determined by x-ray structure analysis. The gain in entropy drives the molecule into the transition state and, in this way, accounts for its flexibility.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
