Dynamical origins of heat capacity changes in enzyme-catalysed reactions

Heat capacity changes affect the temperature dependence of enzyme catalysis, with implications for thermoadaptation, however their physical basis is unknown. Here the authors show that heat capacity changes are calculable by simulation, revealing distinct dynamical contributions from regions remote...
