Zusammenfassung

The role of water motions around proteins has been a central topic in understanding the function and dynamics of proteins. The idea that water is not just a passive spectator, but an active player in dynamical processes of biosystems, has recently found increasing support from experiment and theory. The goal is to look directly at both the protein and water as they interact. The main objective is to use direct Terahertz sensing of water molecules around the protein, as well as the protein in combination with fluorescence sensing of the protein itself to systematically study changes in ...
