Intersubunit
Intersubunit refers to the interactions and communications that occur between different subunits within a larger protein complex or macromolecular assembly. These interactions are crucial for the proper functioning, stability, and regulation of the complex. Intersubunit interactions can involve various types of molecular bonds, including hydrogen bonds, ionic interactions, and hydrophobic interactions. They can also involve more specific interactions, such as those mediated by small molecules or cofactors that bind to multiple subunits simultaneously.
The study of intersubunit interactions is important in understanding the structure and function of many biological
Intersubunit interactions can also play a role in the regulation of protein complexes. For example, post-translational
The study of intersubunit interactions often involves the use of various biochemical and structural techniques, such
