要旨

Water present near the surface of a protein exhibits dynamic properties different from that of water in the pure bulk state. In this work, we have carried out atomistic molecular dynamics simulation of an aqueous solution of hen egg-white lysozyme. Attempts have been made to explore the correlation between the local heterogeneous mobility of water around the protein segments and the rigidity of the hydration layers with the microscopic dynamics of hydrogen bonds formed by water molecules with the protein residues. The kinetics of breaking and reformation of hydrogen bonds involving the surface water molecules have been calculated. It is found that the reformations of broken hydrogen bonds are more frequent for the hydration layers of those segments of the protein that are more rigid. The calculation of the low-frequency vibrational modes of hydration layer water molecules reveals that the protein influences the transverse and longitudinal degrees of freedom of water around it in a differential manner. These findings can be verified by appropriate experimental studies.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
