The two accompanying papers describe the assignment of methyl-containing spin-systems in the 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of tuna ferricytochrome c and tuna ferrocytochrome c. At present, 104 resonances from 208 C-H protons are assigned in both oxidation states. In this paper, the difference in chemical shift of a resonance between the two oxidation states is used together with a dipolar model of the unpaired electron spin of ferricytochrome c to compare the structure of cytochrome c in solution with three high-resolution structures of cytochrome c obtained by X-ray diffraction in single crystals. The overall protein fold and the positions of most of the haem-packing residues are shown to be invariant between the crystal and solution. However, three regions of the protein, at the C terminus, around the haem propionic acid groups and at the haem crevice near thioether-2, are found to undergo conformational changes on the removal of crystal packing constraints.
