The conformation of enkephalin bound to its receptor: An ‘elusive goal’ becoming reality
The availability of solid state structures of opioid receptors has prompted us to reconsider a crucial question concerning bioactive peptides: can their conformation be studied without any knowledge of the structure of their receptors? The meaning of this query depends mainly on the extreme conforma...
