Bending Residue Dihedral Analysis

Residue i Residue i+1 Distance of hinge axis to residue i in conformer 1 (A) Distance of hinge axis to residue i in conformer 2 (A) Change in psi (i) (deg) Change in phi (i+1) (deg) Angle of psi(i) axis to hinge axis conformer 1 (deg) Angle of psi(i) axis to hinge axis conformer 2 (deg) Percentage Progress  THR-139   VAL-140  26.3 25.3 -4.8 -4.0 92.7 94.5 -0.3  VAL-140   SER-141  22.8 21.9 -16.2 -79.2 130.1 116.3 -38.4  ASP-159   LEU-160  1.9 1.8 23.6 -3.2 56.7 54.2 7.0  LEU-160   VAL-161  2.6 2.4 20.7 -13.9 102.2 98.5 -0.8  VAL-161   MET-162  6.0 5.9 -12.3 6.8 105.6 104.7 -0.7 Graph shows rotational transition at bending residues and can be used to identify hinge bending residues. Probably only informative for interdomain rotations greater than 20 degrees
