cIAP1 undergoes a dramatic conformational change during activation that is now shown to be due to the dynamic and metastable nature of the closed form of the enzyme. The discovery of such a striking mechanism for functional control was enabled by state-of-the-art enzymological and biophysical methods.
cIAP1 在激活过程中经历了剧烈的构象变化,现在证明这种变化是由于酶的封闭形式的动态和亚稳态性质所致。这种用于功能控制的惊人机制的发现得益于最先进的酶学和生物物理方法。
