Dynamic Protein Allosteric Regulation and Disease
Abstract
Allostery is largely associated with conformational and functional transitions in individual proteins. All dynamic proteins are allosteric. This concept can be extended to consider the impact of conformational perturbations on cellular function and disease states. In this section, we will illuminate how allostery can control physiological activities and cause disease, aiming to increase the awareness of the linkage between disease symptoms on the cellular level and specific aberrant allosteric actions on the molecular level.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
