title: Exchange of individual hydrogens for a protein in a crystal and in solution.
abstract: A preliminary comparison of the solvent exchange of individual hydrogens of a protein in solution and in a crystal has been possible by using data for lysozyme from 1H nuclear magnetic resonance and neutron diffraction studies. It is suggested that this approach enables a direct comparison of local dynamical behaviour in the two states. The results indicate markedly similar behaviour for many residues, but significant differences are indicated in several regions of the protein.
