Allosteric enzymes as biosensors for molecular diagnosis [PDF]
Biosensors are hybrid analytical devices that amplify signals generated from the specific interaction between a receptor and the analyte, through a biochemical mechanism. Biosensors use tissues, whole cells, artificial membranes or cell components like proteins or nucleic acids as receptors, coupled to a physicochemical signal transducer.

Organism-adapted specificity of the allosteric regulation of pyruvate kinase in lactic acid bacteria. [PDF]
Pyruvate kinase (PYK) is a critical allosterically regulated enzyme that links glycolysis, the primary energy metabolism, to cellular metabolism. Lactic acid bacteria rely almost exclusively on glycolysis for their energy production under anaerobic ...

Understanding allosteric and cooperative interactions in enzymes [PDF]
The paper that introduced biochemists to the idea of allosteric feedback inhibition [Monod J, Changeux J‐P & Jacob F (1963) J Mol Biol 6, 306–329] is now 50 years old, and the two papers on models for enzyme cooperativity that followed it [Monod J, Wyman J & Changeux J‐P (1965) J Mol Biol 12, 88–118; Koshland DE, Némethy G & Filmer D (1966)

Structure of rabbit liver fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase at 2.3 Å resolution [PDF]
The three-dimensional structure of the R form of rabbit liver fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase (Fru-1,6-Pase; E.C. 3.1.3.11) has been determined by a combination of heavy-atom and molecular-replacement methods.

Structure and allosteric regulation of human NAD-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase
Human NAD-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase or HsIDH3 catalyzes the decarboxylation of isocitrate into α-ketoglutarate in the TCA cycle. HsIDH3 exists and functions as a heterooctamer composed of the αβ and αγ heterodimers, and is regulated ...
