Figure 6

Dependence of the POR reaction pathway on solvent dynamics. Small-amplitude vibrationally excited motions characterizing the hydride transfer step are depicted by small arrows localized at the enzyme active site. Protein motions of larger amplitude characterizing the subsequent proton transfer and product release steps are depicted as long arrows linking the enzyme active site to the solvent in a liquidlike state (shaded waves).
