Abstract
In this paper the answer to O. B. Ptitsyn's question "What is the role of conserved non-functional residues in apomyoglobin" is presented, which is based on the research results of three laboratories. The role of conserved non-functional apomyoglobin residues in formation of native topology in the molten globule state of this protein is revealed. This fact allows suggesting that the conserved non-functional residues in this protein are indispensable for fixation and maintaining main elements of the correct topology of its secondary structure in the intermediate state. The correct topology is a native element in the intermediate state of the protein.
