What's the difference between conform and disagree?

Conform


Definition:

  • (a.) Of the same form; similar in import; conformable.
  • (v. t.) To shape in accordance with; to make like; to bring into harmony or agreement with; -- usually with to or unto.
  • (v. i.) To be in accord or harmony; to comply; to be obedient; to submit; -- with to or with.
  • (v. i.) To comply with the usages of the Established Church; to be a conformist.

  • (14) The substructural units, 5-14 linear and 5-14 cyclic, have been used as models for MCH-- H-Asp1-Thr-Met-Arg-Cys-Met-Val-Gly-Arg HO-Val17-Glu-Trp-Cys-Pro-Arg-Tyr-Val in 1H-nmr conformational studies.

  • (17) The conformations of cysteamine, thiazolidine, and thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid were determined in aqueous solutions using NMR spectroscopy.
  • (18) This structural change opens the heme pocket and modifies the general conformation of the EF segment, thus explaining the increase in oxygen affinity and the achievement of a three-dimensional structure favoring asparagine deamidation.
  • (19) It is likely that the molecule undergoes a conformational change when it is bound to the receptor.
  • (20) The phenylalanine-dependent conformation and the leucine-dependent conformation differ considerably.
