description Protein ligand interactions play an important role in biology. Increasingly the aim is to understand and influence protein ligand binding. The binding process is heavily influenced by its thermodynamic parameters. In order to understand how the whole system thermodynamics work it is important to characterise the individual contribution of each of the systems components. While the change in conformational entropy of the protein can be determined using QENS complementary methods are necessary in order to characterise all components. This paper will describe the challenges that can occur when combining the different methods, as well as how they can be overcome.
