Changing integral formation (8)
I believe the answer is:
altering
'changing' is the definition.
(altering is a kind of changing)
'integral formation' is the wordplay.
'formation' is an anagram indicator.
'integral' anagrammed gives 'ALTERING'.
(Other definitions for altering that I've seen before include "Changing -- 1 across (anag)" , "making a change" , "Modifying, changing" , "Making changes" , "revising" .)
