ndryshimi konformacional


Definition from own experience or research:
Makromolekulat zakonisht janë elastike dhe dinamike. Ato mund të ndryshojnë trajtën si përgjigje ndaj ndryshimeve në mjedisin e tyre ose ndaj faktorëve të tjerë. Çdo trajtë e mundshme quhet konformacion dhe kalimi nga njëra trajtë në tjetrën quhet ndryshim konformacional.

Example sentence(s):
  • Enfuvirtide (Fuzeon) është një peptide prej 36 amino acidesh që korespondon tek mbetjet 127-162 të gp41 dhe bllokon këtë ndryshim konformacional. - pathmicro.med  
  • Nuk është ende e qartë përse ndodh kjo, porse një shpjegim i mundshëm mund të jetë që lidhja tek gp120 shkakton një ndryshim konformacional në këtë të fundit duke i dhënë atij një afinitet më të lartë për ko-receptorin që është i rëndësishëm, së bashku me antigjenin CD4, në infektimin e qelizave nga VIH. - pathmicro.med
