By measuring distances and radii of gyration, models of some large complexes have been created. These include a model of the relative positions of all 21 proteins in the small ribosomal subunit from E. coli (Capel et al., 1987), a model of seven proteins from the large subunit (May et al., 1992
) and a model of the DNA-dependant RNA polymerase (Stöckel et al., 1980b
). Intramolecular conformational states of cholesterol esters have been observed using distance measurements on molecules chemically labelled in different regions (Burks & Engelman, 1981
).
