[ jump to morphs ]

Classification Known Domain Motion, Unclassifiable Mechanism [D-?-2]

Structures 1TBP Conformation 1 [ PartsList ]

Description Twisting of a central sheet moves 2 domains ~10 degrees. Motion is evident in comparing different subunits in the asymmetric unit. Single data bank identifier applies for both forms.
