Question
Chapter 3, Problem 31P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The difficulty in drawing the conclusions for the conformational changes of protein for a single crystal structure needs to be explained.
Concept introduction:
A conformational change of a protein might be induced by several environmental factors like, pH, temperature, phosphorylation, ligands, etc. conformation can be defined as a certain shape and conformational change can be defined as the transition between two conformations.
