Abstract
⺠We studied ultrafast ligand dynamics in truncated hemoglobin HbO from M. tuberculosis. ⺠CO, NO, and O2 all have a very low probability to escape from the heme pocket. ⺠Fast CO geminate rebinding is robust against changes in close aromatic residues. ⺠Molecular dynamics simulations suggest origins of caging.
