Structure-Based Statistical Mechanical Model Accounts for the Causality and Energetics of Allosteric Communication.

Allostery is one of the pervasive mechanisms through which proteins in living systems carry out enzymatic activity, cell signaling, and metabolism control. Effective modeling of the protein function regulation requires a synthesis of the thermodynamic and structural views of allostery. We present he...
