*1995-1997: [[Recoverin, a calcium-activated myristoyl switch]]. Calcium induces this protein to undergo a huge conformational change, literally turning one domain inside out. The N-terminal myristic acid goes from being buried within the hydrophobic core of a protein domain to being exposed, facilitating the attachment of this enzyme to disc membranes in rod cells in the eye. [[Morphs]] of this transition are [[Recoverin, a calcium-activated myristoyl switch|shown]]. | *1995-1997: [[Recoverin, a calcium-activated myristoyl switch]].
