In the realm of biomedical research, understanding the intricate structure of proteins is crucial, as these structures determine how proteins function within our bodies and interact with potential drugs. Traditionally, methods like X-ray crystallogra...
Allosteric drugs offer a new avenue for modern drug design. However, the identification of cryptic allosteric sites presents a formidable challenge. Following the allostery nature of residue-driven conformation transition, we propose a state-of-the-a...

Allosteric modulators are important regulation elements that bind the allosteric site beyond the active site, leading to the changes in dynamic and/or thermodynamic properties of the protein. Allosteric modulators have been a considerable interest as...
Drug discovery is arguably a highly challenging and significant interdisciplinary aim. The stunning success of the artificial intelligence-powered AlphaFold, whose latest version is buttressed by an innovative machine-learning approach that integrate...
Allosteric regulation, induced by perturbations at an allosteric site topographically distinct from the orthosteric site, is one of the most direct and efficient ways to fine-tune macromolecular function. The Allosteric Database (ASD; accessible onli...
Driver mutations can contribute to the initial processes of cancer, and their identification is crucial for understanding tumorigenesis as well as for molecular drug discovery and development. Allostery regulates protein function away from the functi...
Allosteric molecules provide a powerful means to modulate protein function. However, the effect of such ligands on distal orthosteric sites cannot be easily described by classical docking methods. Here, we applied machine learning (ML) approaches to ...
