And I’m a synthetic biologist in protein engineering. What I’m skeptical about is that for this protein specifically, this change in structure plays a major role in function determination, due to its simplicity, and that we are seeing two distinct folds that are locked from each other.

The point ultimately is moot, the protein chosen is a membrane bound protein, so the lipid layer will provide stabilization.
