Extract

In all contemporary models of enzyme catalysis, the functional activity of enzymes is directly associated with the dynamic properties of proteins (see Blumenfeld, 1977; Chernavaskaya & Chernavskii, 1977; Volkenstein, 1975; Austin et al. 1975; Shaitan & Rubin, 1985; Ansari et al. 1985). This has recently led to a much greater interest in the dynamical properties of proteins.
