An attempt was made to study the dynamics and hence the fluctuations in globular proteins treating them as prolate and oblate spheroidal bodies. The fluctuations were obtained by solving the dynamical differential equation of motion derived from the elastic stress-strain relations. The results provide information on the nature of variation of the displacement of the atoms due to fluctuations in the distance from the central of the protein.
