RMSF of the ligand-bound simulations (top) and apo simulations (middle) from MD trajectories. Each RMSF was plotted on a common structure (from 830 nsec in ligand-bound simulation 3) to facilitate comparison. The fluctuation data (bottom) estimated from the temperature factor of the crystal structure using Equation 1 is also included for comparison. The scaling is the same as Figure 3, the RMSF 1D plot.
