Full-length nuclear receptor allosteric regulation [PDF]
Nuclear receptors are a superfamily of transcription factors regulated by a wide range of lipids that include phospholipids, fatty acids, heme-based metabolites, and cholesterol-based steroids. Encoded as classic two-domain modular transcription factors,

Insights into the Allosteric Regulation of Human Hsp90 Revealed by NMR Spectroscopy [PDF]
Human heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is one of the most important chaperones that play a role in the late stages of protein folding. Errors in the process of the chaperone cycle can lead to diseases such as cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Therefore,

Deciphering the allosteric regulation of mycobacterial inosine-5′-monophosphate dehydrogenase [PDF]
Allosteric regulation of inosine 5′-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH), an essential enzyme of purine metabolism, contributes to the homeostasis of adenine and guanine nucleotides. However, the precise molecular mechanism of IMPDH regulation in bacteria

Coevolution-based prediction of key allosteric residues for protein function regulation
Allostery is fundamental to many biological processes. Due to the distant regulation nature, how allosteric mutations, modifications, and effector binding impact protein function is difficult to forecast.

Prediction and confirmation of a switch-like region within the N-terminal domain of hSIRT1
Many proteins display conformational changes resulting from allosteric regulation. Often only a few residues are crucial in conveying these structural and functional allosteric changes.

Allosteric Inhibition of Factor XIIIa. Non-Saccharide Glycosaminoglycan Mimetics, but Not Glycosaminoglycans, Exhibit Promising Inhibition Profile [PDF]
Factor XIIIa (FXIIIa) is a transglutaminase that catalyzes the last step in the coagulation process. Orthostery is the only approach that has been exploited to design FXIIIa inhibitors.
