The aim of this blog is to encourage development and dissemination of knowledge of native protein structures at the quaternary level, that is, knowledge of the arrangements of subunits in functional proteins. The fundamental starting point of this discussion is that the arrangements seen in protein crystals are not necessarily the native arrangements.
