We find that a double Arrhenius temperature dependence with activation energies &lt;em&gt;E&lt;/em&gt;&lt;sub&gt;1&lt;/sub&gt; ∼ 0.1 kJ/mol and &lt;em&gt;E&lt;/em&gt;&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; ∼ 10 kJ/mol fits the folded and ligand-free state response. The higher activation energy is consistent with the so-called protein dynamical transition associated with beta relaxations at the solvent–protein interface. The lower activation energy is consistent with correlated structural motions. When the structure is removed by denaturing, the lower-activation-energy process is no longer present. Additionally, the lower-activation-energy process is diminished with ligand binding but not for changes in the internal oxidation state. We suggest that the lower-energy activation process is associated with collective structural motions that are no longer accessible with denaturing or binding.&lt;/p&gt;
