Images of changes in the electron density maps of myoglobin after photodissociation of carbon monoxide with a laser pulse. The ligand and protein begin (overview panel A) in the conformations represented by the purple density and migrate to the green states as time elapses (detail panels B-G), showing the dynamics of the process. The CO moves up and to the left, diffusing into the protein matrix. From (68).
