Conformation generally means structural arrangement and may refer to: *
Conformational isomerism In chemistry, rotamers are chemical species that differ from one another primarily due to rotations about one or more single bonds. Various arrangements of atoms in a molecule that differ by rotation about single bonds can also be referred to as ...
, a form of stereoisomerism in chemistry **
Carbohydrate conformation Carbohydrate conformation refers to the overall three-dimensional structure adopted by a carbohydrate (saccharide) molecule as a result of the through-bond and through-space physical forces it experiences arising from its molecular structure. The ...
**
Cyclohexane conformation Cyclohexane conformations are any of several three-dimensional shapes adopted by cyclohexane. Because many compounds feature structurally similar six-membered rings, the structure and dynamics of cyclohexane are important prototypes of a wide r ...
**
Protein conformation Protein structure is the three-dimensional arrangement of atoms in an amino acid-chain molecule. Proteins are polymers specifically polypeptides formed from sequences of amino acids, which are the monomers of the polymer. A single amino acid m ...

Conformation activity relationship Conformation generally means structural arrangement and may refer to: * Conformational isomerism, a form of stereoisomerism in chemistry ** Carbohydrate conformation ** Cyclohexane conformation ** Protein conformation ** Conformation activity rel ...
between the biological activity and the conformation or conformational changes of a biomolecule


Animal breeding

Equine conformation Equine conformation evaluates a horse's bone structure, musculature, and its body proportions in relation to each other. Undesirable conformation can limit the ability to perform a specific task. Although there are several faults with univers ...
evaluates the degree of correctness of a horse's bone structure, musculature, and body proportions *
Conformation (dog) Conformation in dogs refers solely to the externally visible details of a dog's structure and appearance, as defined in detail by each dog breed's written breed standard. A dog that ''conforms'' to most of the items of description in its individ ...
evaluates a dog according to physical standards for its breed **
Conformation show A dog show is an animal show; it is an event where dogs are exhibited. A conformation show, also referred to as a '' breed show'', is a kind of dog show in which a judge, familiar with a specific dog breed, evaluates individual purebred dogs ...
, a dog show in which dogs are judged according to how well they conform to the established breed type
