Allosteric Effects The specificity of a ligand binding site on a protein is based on the absence of competing ligands the amino acid residues lining the binding site the presence of hydrating water molecules the opposite chirality of the binding ligand the absence of competing ligands the amino acid residues lining the binding site the presence of hydrating water molecules the opposite chirality of the binding ligand ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Allosteric Effects The conformational changes from the T to the R state is initiated by movement of the F-helix, which contains the proximal His movement of the proximal histidine towards the heme reorganization of protein-protein contacts between the individual subunits binding of oxygen to the heme movement of the F-helix, which contains the proximal His movement of the proximal histidine towards the heme reorganization of protein-protein contacts between the individual subunits binding of oxygen to the heme ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
