Multimodal allostery in a single-domain protein

Allosteric communication between distant sites in proteins is central to biological regulation and underlies the efficacy of many drugs. Allostery allows proteins to function as molecular switches, with their activities controlled by ligand binding, covalent modifications, and mutations outside their active sites. Allosteric maps have been constructed for several proteins, but these all quantify…
