Time scale super-slow

In sharp contrast to the large number of experimental and computer simulation studies reported in literature, there have been relatively few analytical or model dependent studies on the dynamics of protein hydration layer. A simple phenomenological model, proposed earlier by Nandi and Bagchi [4] explains the observed slow relaxation in the hydration layer in terms of a dynamic equilibrium between the bound and the free states of water molecules within the layer. The slow time scale is the inverse of the rate of bound to free transition. In this model, the transition between the free and bound states occurs by rotation. Recently Mukherjee and Bagchi [14] have numerically solved the space dependent reaction-diffusion model to obtain the probability distribution and the time dependent mean-square displacement (MSD). The model predicts a transition from sub-diffusive to super-diffusive translational behaviour, before it attains a diffusive nature in the long time. However, a microscopic theory of hydration layer dynamics is yet to be fully developed.
