Sometimes it is instructive to change the conformation of a protein model. Typically this means "sculpting" an experimentally-determined (empirical) model into a hypothetical conformation with some functional significance. There are software packages that enable this to be done using the mouse to drag portions of the original model into desired conformations. | |||
