<font face="verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif" size="5">An amino acid
substitution can cause a peptide to fold differently, or not, depending on
how similar the new amino acid is to the original. When the substitution
of an amino acid is similar to the original, the change is called <b>conservative</b>.
If the amino acid is quite different, it is called a <b>non-conservative</b>
substitution.<!--A
non-conservative substitution it is more likely to lead to a change in
protein structure and function than a conservative change.-->

Hint
Comparing the amino acids will be easier
if you first rotate them so their main chains
are all oriented in the same way.
