Exposing Hidden Alternative Backbone Conformations in X-ray Crystallography Using qFit.

Proteins must move between different conformations of their native ensemble to perform their functions. Crystal structures obtained from high-resolution X-ray diffraction data reflect this heterogeneity as a spatial and temporal conformational average. Although movement between natively populated al...
