The effect of progessive hydration up to 60% by weight of Hz0 and D20 on the proton relasation of polycrystalline achymotrypsin and lysozyme has been examined. The dynamical behaviour of the protein molecules was not affected by hydration. The dynamics of the water molecules was characterized. and t

β¦ Synopsis
Measurements have been made of the proton NMR spin-lattice relaxation at 60,30 and 18 MHZ in solid ribonudwse A from IO to 300 K. and in a-chymotrypsin, lysozyme and deuterated lysozyme from 120 to 300 K. Reorientation of the methyl groups is the predominant moIecular motion causing relaxation. A lognormal distniution of correlation times best characterues the motions, with a spread of actwatron energies 14 t 6 kJ/mole.

A proton NMR relaxation study has been carried out in the solid state on ten of the twenty animo acids encotmtered in proteins, namely alanine, arginine, aspartic acid, glutamine. glycine, isoleucine, leucine, methionine, serine and wline.

The relaxation times TI and TD were measured for dipalmitoyl-La-lecithin and dipalmitoyl-DL-cc-lecithin 2t various temperatures. It was possible to separate the contribution of the slow motions to the relaxation rates from the fast ones. For some types of motions the activation energies could be est
## Abstract The magnetic field dependence of waterβproton relaxation is reported for a simple protein solution, a crossβlinked protein solution, and a series of rat tissues, fresh, dried and rehydrated. The shape of the magnetic field dependence associated with water proton relaxation in tissues is
