Abstract

Spin-labelling method in combination with modern versions of ESR spectroscopy allows one to study intramolecular dynamics of protein globules and surrounding molecules of water in a wide range of correlation times (τ c = 102−10−11 s) and amplitudes and phonon processes as well. Experimental results for a number of proteins at temperatures from 30 to 300 K and at various humidity are in favour of glass-like dynamical model of proteins.
