The dynamics of the enthalpy and volume changes found in the photodissociation of CO from sperm whale carboxymyoglobin and two site-directed mutants in which arginine-45 is replaced by glycine and asparagine are examined by photoacoustic calorimetry. An intermediate is observed whose lifetime at 20 degrees C is 700 ns. The enthalpy of the intermediate increases by approximately 7 kcal/mol upon replacing arginine-45 with either asparagine or glycine. These observations support recent proposals that an arginine-45 salt bridge is broken upon ligand dissociation.
