===Conformational Change=== | |||
In order for the Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) to move across the membrane to bind with the second monomer, it has to undergo a conformational change. The Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase Activating Ligand (ALKAL) binds to the binding surface on the ALK. This induces a conformational change which allows for the PXL and the GlyR domains to hinge forward. <ref>DOI: 10.1038/s41586-021-04140-8</ref> The kinase is now ready to move across the membrane and attach to the other kinase to be fully activated. | |||
