It is necessary for the understanding of structure polymorphism of various molecules and interacting protein and the plastic molecules base to clarify the fluctuation of the domain as the mer. In this study, I targeted protein MurD consisting of three domains and a ligand was in a free state and analyzed domain exercise by the quantum beam dispersion method using X-rays and the neutron and the correlation structure analytical method that fused of the molecules simulation about an ATP-binding state, three states of the Compound1-binding state. By the solution small angle scattering experiment, I showed that the solution structure of the 3 state was different. In addition, I showed good agreement with the dispersion profile obtained from the molecular simulation and confirmed that I could discuss solution structure in atom resolving power from experimental data of the low resolving power. I extracted a domain campaign in conjunction with the function from the chief ingredient analysis of the molecular simulation result. Furthermore, a result to suggest what a fluctuation and a couple of the amino acid residue that this domain campaign participated in the combination with interaction molecules of MurD did was provided. By the method that fused by an experiment method of dynamic solution structure analysis including a neutron spin echo and technique of the calculation science in addition to small angle scattering, I visualize domain exercise of protein in atom resolving power and, in the announcement, argue by a function of the protein from the dynamic structure that a couple did between the hierarchies of different space scale.
