A composition having an agent adapted to affect a multimeric protein by binding to a binding site of the multimeric protein and thereby affecting an equilibrium of units, wherein the multimeric protein has an assembly having a plurality of said units, wherein each of the units has a first complementary surface and a second complementary surface and wherein the first complementary surface of one unit is associated with the second complementary surface of another unit, provided that the assembly is at least one of different quaternary isoforms on a condition that in the multimeric protein (1) a structure of each of the units determines a structure of the different quaternary isoforms, (2) the units are in the equilibrium and (3) the structure of the different quaternary isoforms influences a function of the multimeric protein.
一种组合物,具有适用于影响多聚蛋白的药剂,通过结合多聚蛋白的结合位点并因此影响单位的平衡,其中多聚蛋白具有具有多个该单位的组装体,其中每个单位具有第一互补表面和第二互补表面,其中一个单位的第一互补表面与另一个单位的第二互补表面相关联,前提是组装体至少是不同的四聚体异构体之一,在多聚蛋白中(1)每个单位的结构决定不同四聚体异构体的结构,(2)单位处于平衡状态,(3)不同四聚体异构体的结构影响多聚蛋白的功能。
