1 Abstract
Present understanding of protein structure dynamics trails behind that of static structures. Representation of protein entities (RoPE), based on torsion angles, derives an interpretable conformational space which correlates with data collection temperature, resolution and reaction coordinate. This indicates that torsion angles are a more sensitive and biologically relevant descriptor for protein conformation than atomic coordinates.
