Uncovering the role of global protein dynamics in enzyme turnover is needed to fully understand enzyme catalysis. Recently, we have demonstrated that the heat capacity of catalysis can reveal links between the protein free energy landscape, global protein dynamics and enzyme turnover, suggesting that subtle changes molecular interactions at the active site can affect long range protein dynamics and link to enzyme temperature activity. Here we use a model promiscuous enzyme (Glucose dehydrogenase from Sulfolobus Solfataricus) to chemically map how individual substrate interactions affect the temperature dependence of enzyme activity and the network of motions throughout the protein. Utilizing a combination of kinetics, REES spectroscopy and computational simulation we explore the complex relationship between enzyme-substrate interactions and the global dynamics of the protein. We find that changes in the heat capacity of catalysis and protein dynamics can be mapped to specific substrate-enzyme interactions. Our study reveals how subtle changes in substrate binding affect global changes in motion and flexibility extending throughout the protein.

This work relates to the field of thermophysical parameters of refractory interstitial alloys. The isochoric heat capacity of cubic titanium carbide TiCx has been calculated within the Debye approximation in the carbon concentration  range x = 0.70–0.97 at room temperature (300 K) and at liquid nitrogen temperature (80 K) through the Debye temperature established on the basis of neutron diffraction analysis data. It has been found out that at room temperature with decrease of carbon concentration the heat capacity significantly increases from 29.40 J/mol·K to 34.20 J/mol·K, and at T = 80 K – from 3.08 J/mol·K to 8.20 J/mol·K. The work analyzes the literature data and gives the results of the evaluation of the high-temperature dependence of the heat capacity СV of the cubic titanium carbide TiC0.97 based on the data of neutron structural analysis. It has been proposed to amend in the Neumann–Kopp formula to describe the high-temperature dependence of the titanium carbide heat capacity. After the amendment, the Neumann–Kopp formula describes the results of well-known experiments on the high-temperature dependence of the heat capacity of the titanium carbide TiCx. The proposed formula takes into account the degree of thermal excitation (a quantized number) that increases in steps with increasing temperature.The results allow us to predict the thermodynamic characteristics of titanium carbide in the temperature range of 300–3000 K and can be useful for materials scientists.

Temperature dependence of GE is discussed for three widely used equations linear and nonlinear in parameters. It is shown that the Wilson equation predicts always positive excess heat capacity regardless of values of its parameters. Several temperature modifications of the Redlich-Kister, Wilson and NRTL equations are discussed with respect to the sign of the excess Gibbs energy, excess enthalpy and excess heat capacity.

Rates of solvolysis of methanesulfonyl chloride and benzenesulfonyl chloride have been determined in H2O and D2O. The free energy, enthalpy, entropy, and heat capacity of activation were calculated. The exceptional accuracy of the data permitted an estimation of dΔCp≠/dT from a four parameter temperature dependence of the kinetic rates.From these data we conclude that both sulfonyl chlorides hydrolyse by the same mechanism (Sn2) The change in R from CH3 to C6H5 in RSO2Cl did not alter ΔCp≠ but ΔS≠ (20°) was changed from −8.32 to −13.25 cal deg−1 mole−1, respectively. The significance of this difference is attributed to the probability of bond formation rather than to differences in solvent reorganization.

In the heat «cooling» investigated the temperature dependence of the specific heat capacity and thermodynamic functions doped strontium alloy AK1М2 in the range 298,15—900 K. Mathematical models are obtained that describe the change in these properties of alloys in the temperature range 298.15—900 K, as well as on the concentration of the doping component. It was found that with increasing temperature, specific heat capacity, enthalpy and entropy alloys increase, and the concentration up to 0.5 wt.% of the alloying element decreases. Gibbs energy values have an inverse relationship, i.e., temperature — decreases the content of alloying component — is up to 0.5 wt.% growing.
