Which risk increases for electron transport when protein conformational change is constrained?

💡 Explanation

Constraining the protein conformation can prevent efficient electron transfer, because the electron tunneling rate demands proper molecular orbital alignment. Therefore, electrons prematurely react with oxygen rather than passing between electron carriers, because proper alignment through movement reduces the odds otherwise.
