ESR studies on spin-labeled amorphous RNase A as a function of varying concentrations of sorbed H2O and D2O will be presented. A relaxation analysis of saturation transfer (ST-)ESR spectra of 14N(1H) nitroxide spin-label molecules essentially fixed at amino acid residue His-105 will be given. A characteristic correlation has been observed between the microdynamic behavior--expressed by the rotational correlation times of the paramagnetic label--and the macroscopic thermodynamic entropy for the sorption process of H2O and D2O at RNase. This correlation is particularly pronounced at low water concentrations, vis., nH2O/nprotein less than or equal to 100. A significant difference in this concentration range exists between the two systems "RNase-H2O" and "RNase-D2O", which is manifested not only by the thermodynamic data but also by the microdynamic behavior extracted from the corresponding non-linear ESR absorption line shapes.
