Certain proteins possess a highly dynamic structure in living cells. A “forbidden” residue (red ball) far away from the subunit “interfaces” (as revealed by in vitro structure determination) may become “permissive” to mediate the interaction of the protein subunits in living cells.91 This might happen through subunit rotation/reorientation (left arrow) and/or conformational change (right arrow) in living cells.
