Molecular basis for the allosteric activation mechanism of the heterodimeric imidazole glycerol phosphate synthase complex

The allosteric regulation of the bienzyme complex imidazole glycerol phosphate synthase (HisFH) remains to be elucidated. Here, the authors provide structural insights into the dynamic allosteric mechanism by which ligand binding to the cyclase and glutaminase active sites of HisFH regulate enzyme a...
