Simulations allow us to probe inaccessible time andlength scales.
Fluctuations in how the protein rearranges itself andsurrounding solvent is vital.
is an attempt to account for these fluctuations.λvar

Disagreement in theoretical and experimentally inferred in MADH-amicyanin.
Claim: two-paramenter model, accounting for statisticsaround protein-solvent electrostatic interactions canbridge the gap between theory and experiment.
Novelty: application of the two-parameter model toMADH-amicyanin.
