Mechanisms of cooperativity and allosteric regulation in proteins

Perutz, M. F.·1989·Quarterly Reviews of Biophysics

Abstract

AUosteric proteins control and coordinate chemical events in the living cell. When Monod conceived that idea he said that he had discovered the second secret of life. The first was the structure of DNA. The theory as published by Monod et al.(1963) was concerned chiefly with cooperativity and feedback inhibition of enzymes, such as the inhibition of threonine deaminase, the first enzyme in the pathway of the synthesis of isoleucine, by isoleucine, and its activation by valine. Two years later the theory was formalized by Monod et al.(1965).

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.
