A subunit runs from 101 to 387 C subunit runs from 67 to 387 Its truncated. The following matrix rotates C subunit so that its P domain (104-268) superposes with that of A subunit : Number of Selected Atoms: 165 [ -0.4696 0.8826 -0.0236 ] [ -20.4604 ] R = [ -0.8807 -0.4702 -0.0581 ] T = [ 46.8588 ] [ -0.0624 -0.0065 0.9980 ] [ 0.2114 ] residues 266-271 seem to do most of the moving. conformation 1: 2tbv-A.pdb conformation 2: 2tbv-C.pdb The hinge in TBV is between residues 266 and 272 (at most 12 torsions).

Note that changes in psi(i) and phi(i+1) can cancel to some degree, so the changes in psi-271, phi-272, and psi-266, and phi-267 may not be that important.
