Allostery is the process by which biological macromolecules (mostly proteins) transmit the effect of binding at one site to another, often distal, functional site, allowing for regulation of …
While significant advances have been made in predicting static protein structures, the inherent dynamics of proteins, modulated by ligands, are crucial for understanding protein …
INTRODUCTION Enzymes possess extraordinary catalytic proficiency and specificity. These properties ultimately derive from interactions not just between the active-site residues and …
Allosteric regulation plays an important role in many biological processes, such as signal transduction, transcriptional regulation, and metabolism. Allostery is rooted in the …
Allostery is largely associated with conformational and functional transitions in individual proteins. This concept can be extended to consider the impact of conformational …
The functions of many proteins are regulated through allostery, whereby effector binding at a distal site changes the functional activity (eg, substrate binding affinity or catalytic efficiency) …
All soluble proteins populate conformational ensembles that together constitute the native state. Their fluctuations in water are intrinsic thermodynamic phenomena, and the …

The assembly of individual proteins into functional complexes is fundamental to nearly all biological processes. In recent decades, many thousands of homomeric and heteromeric …
Molecular recognition is central to all biological processes. For the past 50 years, Koshland's' induced fit'hypothesis has been the textbook explanation for molecular …
