Unraveling antibody-induced structural dynamics in the ADAMTS13 CUB1-2 domains via HDX-MS
: Allosteric regulation of ADAMTS13 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type-1 motif, member 13) activity involves an interaction between its spacer (S) and 2 complement C1r/C1s, Uegf and BMP1 (CUB; CUB1-2) domains to keep the enzyme
