Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Collective dynamics and structure of hydration water for hydrated proteins and polypeptides were investigated by neutron and X-ray scatterings in the temperature range of 298 - 180 K. Hydration structure of proteins and amino acids confined in mesoporous silica and nano-water domain formed in ionic liquid-water mixture. The relation between protein dynamics and water was clarified and the water role in protein function was discussed.
