Changes in quaternary structure can occur through conformational changes within individual subunits or through reorientation of the subunits relative to each other. Source: Internet

Denatured proteins can exhibit a wide range of characteristics, from conformational change and loss of solubility to aggregation due to the exposure of hydrophobic groups. Source: Internet

Cis and trans descriptors are not used for cases of conformational isomerism where the two geometric forms easily interconvert, such as most open-chain single-bonded structures; instead, the terms “syn” and “anti” would be used. Source: Internet

Antibodies bind to and detect phosphorylation-induced conformational changes in the protein. Source: Internet
