The conformational change of the protease inhibitor α(2)-macroglobulin is triggered by the retraction of the cleaved bait region from a central channel

The protease inhibitor α(2)-macroglobulin (A2M) is a member of the ancient α(2)-macroglobulin superfamily (A2MF), which also includes structurally related proteins, such as complement factor C3. A2M and other A2MF proteins undergo an extensive conformational change upon cleavage of their bait region...
