Using potential energy formulas for variation of bond angles and for w-distortion, the conformation of minimum energy for the cis form of the petide unit has been worked out. This agrees very well with the corresponding set of atoms in the crystal structure of Leu-Pro-Gly and the dimensions of a sta

The degradation of the majority of cellular proteins is mediated by the proteasomes. Ubiquitin -dependent proteasomal protein degradation is executed by a number of enzymes that interact to modify the substrates prior to their engagement with the 26S proteasomes. The 26S proteasome is made of two co
