A model of protein conformational substates

D L Stein. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1985 Jun.

Abstract

Many proteins have been observed to exist in a large number of conformations that are believed to play an important role in their dynamics. A model of protein conformational substates that incorporates the ideas of frustration and disorder in analogy to glasses and spin glasses is proposed. Applications to x-ray diffraction, Mössbauer studies, and recombination experiments are discussed.
