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  GLU-771   GLU-772  0.9 1.4 -46.4 24.2 31.5 22.6 109.5  GLU-772   MET-773  3.5 3.5 14.7 0.6 134.3 129.2 -49.6  MET-773   ARG-774  3.3 3.9 -13.3 3.9 87.5 82.1 1.9 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
