Multiple conformations in solution of the maize C4-phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase isozyme

open access: yesHeliyon, 2021
The photosynthetic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase isozyme from C4 plants (PEPC-C4) has a complex allosteric regulation, involving positive cooperativity in binding the substrate phosphoenolpyruvate as well as positive and negative allosteric effectors ...

Fumarate analogs act as allosteric inhibitors of the human mitochondrial NAD(P)+-dependent malic enzyme. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Human mitochondrial NAD(P)+-dependent malic enzyme (m-NAD(P)-ME) is allosterically activated by the four-carbon trans dicarboxylic acid, fumarate. Previous studies have suggested that the dicarboxylic acid in a trans conformation around the carbon-carbon

The contribution of two isozymes to the pyruvate kinase activity of Vibrio cholerae: One K+-dependent constitutively active and another K+-independent with essential allosteric activation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
In a previous phylogenetic study of the family of pyruvate kinase EC (2.7.1.40), a cluster with Glu117 and another with Lys117 were found (numbered according to the rabbit muscle enzyme).

Computational modeling of cAMP­-dependent protein kinase allostery [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Estonian Academy of Sciences, 2023
Allosteric regulation by ATP of peptide binding with a cAMP-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit was com­putationally modeled by combining conventional docking analysis and molecular dynamics calculations.

Novel allosteric inhibition of phosphoribulokinase identified by ensemble kinetic modeling of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 metabolism

open access: yesMetabolic Engineering Communications, 2020
The present study attempted a computer simulation of the metabolism of a model cyanobacteria, Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 (PCC 6803) to predict allosteric inhibitions that are likely to occur in photoautotrophic and mixotrophic conditions as well as in a ...

Temperature as a modulator of allosteric motions and crosstalk in mesophilic and thermophilic enzymes

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2023
Mesophilic and thermophilic enzyme counterparts are often studied to understand how proteins function under harsh conditions. To function well outside of standard temperature ranges, thermophiles often tightly regulate their structural ensemble through ...

Statistical Mechanics of Allosteric Enzymes [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2016
The concept of allostery in which macromolecules switch between two different conformations is a central theme in biological processes ranging from gene regulation to cell signaling to enzymology. Allosteric enzymes pervade metabolic processes, yet a simple and unified treatment of the effects of allostery in enzymes has been lacking.

The allosteric control mechanism of bacterial glycogen biosynthesis disclosed by cryoEM

open access: yesCurrent Research in Structural Biology, 2020
Glycogen and starch are the major carbon and energy reserve polysaccharides in nature, providing living organisms with a survival advantage. The evolution of the enzymatic machinery responsible for the biosynthesis and degradation of such polysaccharides,

ATP-Dependent Allosteric DNA Enzymes [PDF]

open access: yesChemistry & Biology, 2002
Effector-activated ribozymes that respond to small organic molecules have previously been generated by appending binding species (aptamers) to ribozymes. In order to determine if deoxyribozymes can similarly be activated by effector molecules, we have appended an anti-adenosine aptamer to a selected deoxyribozyme ligase.
