Conforming


Definition:

  • (p. pr. & vb. n.) of Conform

  • (13) A detailed stereochemical analysis of known protein structures has been made which shows that: (1) irregular regions of proteins consist of a limited number of standard structures formed by three, four of more residues; (2) an amino acid residue of a protein can adopt one of the six sterically allowed conformations designated here as alpha, alpha L, beta, gamma, delta, and epsilon.
  • (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.
