Popis: | Interactions between proteins are extremely variable. However, in the dimeric proteins comprised of regular motifs, interface interactions are similar to those that stabilize monomers. Additional stability is gained by converting loops within motifs or domains to linkers across interfaces. In multi-domain proteins, interactions can be greatly effected by the conformation of linkers between domains. Complex association of subunits, involving higher rotational symmetry or cubic symmetry, frequently involves motif sharing across interfaces. |
