The animated GIF image illustrates various conformational states attainable by the structure. As an example of an assessment for MD1.01, students may be required to create a model using an NMR structure of the protein, overlay the states, and color each differently to allow them to identify the most flexible regions in the structure.

Noncovalent interactions occur between the repressor protein and the DNA, mediated largely through alpha-helices of the protein binding in the major groove of the viral DNA. An example of a MI1.02 assessment would require students to display and describe the interactions at the interface of the two macromolecules.

As an example of an SA1.02 assessment, students would examine a 3D rendering of the structure, coloring the dimer in a way to reveal the symmetry clearly, and show two images to compare the structure as it’s rotated.

'''[[:Category:Structural Model Skepticism|Structural Model Skepticism (SK)]]''': The structure shows unacceptably large steric clashes from backbone atoms for the experimentally-determined orientation of three amino acids (Tyr, Thr and Asn) from the <scene name='85/857774/Sk/1'>SK</scene>Streptococcal Protein G in complex with the FC domain of human IgG</scene> (PDB 1D: 1fcc). The viewer should recognize the unfavorable geometry from the displayed clashes and short hydrogen bond lengths. An example assessment for SK2.01 would be to suggest alterations to either main chain or side chain conformations that may alleviate the strain.
