Research Abstract |
Mobile hydration water plays a part of essential role for functions of biomacromolecules. In order to analyze characteristics of hydration water, we carried out X-ray and neutron crystallographic analysis of structure transitions of protein and nucleotide crystals. Theoretical calculations were also performed. Concerning the hydration water around proteins, our results were consistent with the reports using neutron scattering, dielectric spectroscopic, and computer simulation methods. On the other hand, it was revealed that the hydration water around nucleic acids would have some different character compared with that of proteins.
