Known allosteric proteins have central roles in genetic disease.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2022
Allostery is a form of protein regulation, where ligands that bind sites located apart from the active site can modify the activity of the protein. The molecular mechanisms of allostery have been extensively studied, because allosteric sites are less ...

The auto-inhibition mechanism of transcription factor Ets-1 induced by phosphorylation on the intrinsically disordered region

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2022
As the most abundant post-translation modifications (PTMs), the phosphorylation usually occurred on the intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs). The regulation on the structures and interactions of IDRs induced by phosphorylation is critical to the ...

Structural insights into the role of the Smoothened cysteine-rich domain in Hedgehog signalling. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Smoothened (Smo) is a member of the Frizzled (FzD) class of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), and functions as the key transducer in the Hedgehog (Hh) signalling pathway.

Allosteric Regulation of Mammalian Pantothenate Kinase [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2016
Pantothenate kinase is the master regulator of CoA biosynthesis and is feedback-inhibited by acetyl-CoA. Comparison of the human PANK3·acetyl-CoA complex to the structures of PANK3 in four catalytically relevant complexes, 5'-adenylyl-β,γ-imidodiphosphate (AMPPNP)·Mg2+, AMPPNP·Mg2+·pantothenate, ADP·Mg2+·phosphopantothenate, and AMP phosphoramidate ...

Potential therapeutic targeting of BKCa channels in glioblastoma treatment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes current insights into the role of BKCa and mitoBKCa channels in glioblastoma biology, their potential classification as oncochannels, and the emerging pharmacological strategies targeting these channels, emphasizing the translational challenges in developing BKCa‐directed therapies for glioblastoma treatment.

Heteroreceptor complexes and their allosteric receptor-receptor interactions in the central nervous system. Focus on examples from Dopamine D2 and Serotonin 5-HT1a receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
GPCR interacting proteins (specially β- arrestin) and their receptor-protein interactions are also covered but their interactions with the allosteric receptor-receptor interactions in heteroreceptor complexes remain to be elucidated.

Elasticity sampling links thermodynamics to metabolic control

open access: yes, 2013
Metabolic networks can be turned into kinetic models in a predefined steady state by sampling the reaction elasticities in this state. Elasticities for many reversible rate laws can be computed from the reaction Gibbs free energies, which are determined ...

Interplay between RNA‐protein interactions and RNA structures in gene regulation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Methodological advances in mapping transcriptome‐wide RNA‐protein interactions and RNA structures have started to uncover the potential of RNP conformations in gene regulation. Competing RNA–RNA, RNA‐protein and protein–protein interactions shape the compaction and function of RNPs throughout their lifetime and may provide novel therapeutic targets in ...

Allo-network drugs: Extension of the allosteric drug concept to protein-protein interaction and signaling networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Allosteric drugs are usually more specific and have fewer side effects than orthosteric drugs targeting the same protein. Here, we overview the current knowledge on allosteric signal transmission from the network point of view, and show that most ...

Hairpin and allosteric regulation in ADAMTS13 [PDF]

open access: yesBlood, 2019
In this issue of Blood , Muia et al 1 and Zhu et al, 2 using complementary approaches, provide important insights into the structure and function of ADAMTS13 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin-1 repeats, member 13), identifying critical structural features and interactions that allosterically regulate its proteolytic activity ...
