The protein has an active conformation of 1,25 (OH)_2D_3 that has a ligand binding pocket in its active folded state. The ligand interacts with with the activation helix by stabilizing the agonies position. This is accomplished through Van der Waals interactions between the ligand and the activation helix. The activation ligand is a nuclear receptor (VDR). | |||
There is some empty space observed around the allopathic chain. | |||
