We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.
Art:Spike protein conformation change
From Proteopedia
Morph between 6xr8 and 6xra, animated to move like swimming objects. For the science background (which does not involve "swimming" molecules because they are anchored to a membrane), see SARS-CoV-2 spike protein fusion transformation. I would like to acknowledge Lynmarie Thompson for observing that the animation looks like the protein swims.
