Residue i Residue i+1 Distance of hinge axis to residue i in conformer 1 (A) Distance of hinge axis to residue i in conformer 2 (A) Change in psi (i) (deg) Change in phi (i+1) (deg) Angle of psi(i) axis to hinge axis conformer 1 (deg) Angle of psi(i) axis to hinge axis conformer 2 (deg) Percentage Progress  ILE-88   TYR-89  4.6 4.5 5.1 3.7 59.2 59.0 57.9  TYR-89   SER-90  1.2 1.1 -18.4 15.8 63.9 68.3 14.6  SER-90   PHE-91  3.2 2.9 -5.7 6.7 138.4 136.9 6.8 Graph shows rotational transition at bending residues and can be used to identify hinge bending residues. Probably only informative for interdomain rotations greater than 20 degrees
