The inhibitory members of serpin family undergo an unusual conformational change, the Stressed to Relaxed transition. This structural transition causes the <scene name='60/604473/The_rcl_loop_scene/3'>RCL</scene> insertion into <scene name='60/604473/A_beta_sheet/3'>A β-sheet</scene> thereby the <scene name='60/604473/The_rcl_loop_scene/3'>RCL</scene> forms an extra β strand.
