(5 pt) Conformational changes in protein structure play important roles in virus-host interactions.Give an example of the following conformational change and describe how the conformational change results in activation of a protein function:

a. A conformational change in a virus protein promotes an early step in replication (attachment/entry/uncoating).

b.A conformational change in a cell protein activates an antiviral defense mechanism

Be sure to include what induces the conformational change, and what are the biological consequences/outcome of that change
