Myoglobin (Mb) is a model system for ligand binding and migration. The energy barriers (ΔG) for ligand migration in Mb have been studied in the past by experiment and theory and significant differences between different approaches were found. From experiment, it is known that Mb can assume a large number of conformational substates. In this work, these substates are investigated as a possible source of the differences in migration barriers. We show that the initial structure significantly affect ...[more]
