The initial vote on caucus night is simply a preference poll and not necessarily binding, it's the delegates who make the final decision and are totally unbound if the RNC goes to multiple ballots over the summer.
The possibility that ablation of OR metal binding by HoctaY substitutions delegates activity to the adjacent metal-binding site, 'site 5', involving H95 and H110 residues (Jackson et al, 2001; Kramer et al, 2001; Qin et al, 2002) was excluded by a compound mutated allele composed of OR HoctaY + H95A, which still exhibited robust production of the C2 fragment (Fig 2B).
Democrats warned the two errant states that they would be stripped of their delegates unless their binding vote was held February 5th or later.
In addition, there would be about 55 delegates from these non-binding caucuses that no delegate count feels very comfortable projecting.
