A general property of disordered proteins is their structural expansion that results in a high molecular flexibility. The structure and dynamics of bovine serum albumin (BSA) denatured by guanidinium hydrochloride (GndCl) were investigated using small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) and neutron spin–echo spectroscopy (NSE). SANS experiments demonstrated the relevance of intrachain interactions for structural expansion. Using NSE experiments, we observed a high internal flexibility of denatured BSA in addition to center-of-mass diffusion detected by dynamic light scattering. Internal motions measured by NSE were described using concepts based on polymer theory. The contribution of residue-solvent friction was accounted for using the Zimm model including internal friction (ZIF). Disulfide bonds forming loops of amino acids of the peptide backbone have a major impact on internal dynamics that can be interpreted with a reduced set of Zimm modes.
