It has been postulated that the Gly538 Asp531 hydrogen bond was enabled by the flexibility of glycine residue owing to its small size, which allows it to adopt backbone conformations that are not accessible for other amino acids.
This structure was compared with available NC/oligonucleotide complex structures and further underlined the high flexibility of the NC protein, allowing it to adopt many conformations in order to bind its different oligonucleotide/nucleomimetic targets.
The robot has various settings allowing it to adopt different "personality types" to cater to its users' fantasies: the dominatrix, the barely-18-year-old, etc.
Slovakia has a good chance of meeting the Maastricht convergence criteria for euro entry by 2007, the survey says, allowing it to adopt the single currency in 2009.
This uniformity allows it to adopt alternate registrations in which one hydrophobic residue substitutes for another.
However, it appears that the particular flexibility apparent in CDK9 allows it to adopt a conformation that optimizes the interactions that can be made by CAN508.
To perform this function efficiently, RPA32C is tethered via a flexible linker to the DNA binding apparatus of RPA, allowing it to adopt a wide range of orientations to facilitate recruitment and remodeling of the multi-protein machinery.
Thus, the rotational freedom within Raltegravir allows it to adopt a previously unappreciated bound conformation, highlighting that a drug can have distinct binding modes in subtly different molecular environments.
Thus, phenotypic plasticity allows P. aeruginosa to maximize its fitness by allowing it to differentially adopt a different social strategy depending on the environmental conditions, which in turn may be affected by the combined actions of all cells, leading to the potential for feedback between behavior and ecology.
