AbstractA recent molecular dynamics investigation into the stability of hemoglobin concluded that the unliganded protein is only stable in the T state when a solvent box is used in the simulations that is ten times larger than what is usually employed. Here, we express three main concerns about that study. In addition, we show that with an order of magnitude more statistics, the reported box size dependence is not reproducible. Overall, no significant effects on the kinetics or thermodynamics of conformational transitions were observed.

A recent molecular dynamics investigation into the stability of hemoglobin concluded that the unliganded protein is only stable in the T state when a solvent box is used in the simulations that is ten times larger than what is usually employed (El Hage et al., 2018). Here, we express three main concerns about that study. In addition, we find that with an order of magnitude more statistics, the reported box size dependence is not reproducible. Overall, no significant effects on the kinetics or thermodynamics of conformational transitions were observed.

In this contribution a generalized picture of the cavity number behavior is obtained by means of molecular dynamics simulations and consequent free volume analysis. The cavity number obtained for free volume cavities defined by different probe radii shows a complex behavior with the temperature. The number of cavities determined by small probes drops with the temperature. The number of cavities determined by large probes increases. This complex behavior of the cavity number can be discussed with the distinct behavior of the relative intensity, as observed in the experiment, and a support for the most basic of assumptions, that the cavity number relates to the relative intensity, is given.
