Abstract excerpt
By using ultra-violet and visible absorbance in conjunction with high field 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, the insulin hexamer has been shown to undergo two allosteric transitions in solution involving three allosteric states (T6<-->T3 R3<-->R6). A simple mathematical model consisting of four variables has been derived that quantitatively describes the complex homotropic and heterotropic interactions...
