Pathways of allosteric regulation in Hsp70 chaperones [PDF]
AbstractCentral to the protein folding activity of Hsp70 chaperones is their ability to interact with protein substrates in an ATP-controlled manner, which relies on allosteric regulation between their nucleotide-binding (NBD) and substrate-binding domains (SBD).

Engineering and exploiting synthetic allostery of NanoLuc luciferase
Allosteric regulation of proteins allows transduction and interconversion of biochemical signals. Here the authors construct an allosteric version of circular permutated NanoLuc that can be activated by a ligand; they use this to create biosensors to ...

Allosteric inhibition enhances the efficacy of ABL kinase inhibitors to target unmutated BCR-ABL and BCR-ABL-T315I [PDF]
Background: Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) acute lymphatic leukemia (Ph + ALL) are caused by the t(9;22), which fuses BCR to ABL resulting in deregulated ABL-tyrosine kinase activity.

Structural Basis for Allosteric Regulation of the Monomeric Allosteric Enzyme Human Glucokinase [PDF]
Glucokinase is a monomeric enzyme that displays a low affinity for glucose and a sigmoidal saturation curve for its substrate, two properties that are important for its playing the role of a glucose sensor in pancreas and liver. The molecular basis for these two properties is not well understood.

Allosteric modulation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), the largest family of transmembrane proteins, regulate a wide array of physiological processes in response to extracellular signals. Although these receptors have proven to be the most successful class of drug targets,

The structure and allosteric regulation of glutamate dehydrogenase [PDF]
Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) has been extensively studied for more than 50 years. Of particular interest is the fact that, while considered by most to be a 'housekeeping' enzyme, the animal form of GDH is heavily regulated by a wide array of allosteric effectors and exhibits extensive inter-subunit communication.
