Migration of small ligands in globins: Xe diffusion in truncated hemoglobin N.

In heme proteins, the efficient transport of ligands such as NO or O2 to the binding site is achieved via ligand migration networks. A quantitative assessment of ligand diffusion in these networks is thus essential for a better understanding of the function of these proteins. For this, Xe migration...
