A Unified View of Allostery
Eric Rouviere, Olivier Rivoire, Rama Ranganathan
Allostery is a fundamental property of proteins that represents the functional coupling between distantly located sites. In different manifestations, this property underlies signal…
On Kinetic Constraints That Catalysis Imposes on Elementary Processes
Yann Sakref, Maitane Muñoz-Basagoiti, Zorana Zeravcic +1
Catalysis, the acceleration of product formation by a substance that is left unchanged, typically results from multiple elementary processes, including diffusion of the reactants t…
Cell behavior in the face of uncertainty
David Lacoste, Olivier Rivoire, David S. Tourigny
Organisms that grow and survive in uncertain environments may need to change their physiological state as the environment changes. When the environment is uncertain, one strategy k…
How flexibility can enhance catalysis
Olivier Rivoire
Conformational changes are observed in many enzymes, but their role in catalysis is highly controversial. Here we present a theoretical model that illustrates how rigid catalysts c…
Catalysis from the bottom-up
Maitane Muñoz-Basagoiti, Olivier Rivoire, Zorana Zeravcic
Catalysis, the acceleration of chemical reactions by molecules that are not consumed in the process, is essential to living organisms but currently absent in physical systems that…
On the emergence of single versus multi-state allostery
Eric Rouviere, Rama Ranganathan, Olivier Rivoire
Several physical mechanisms have been proposed to explain allostery in proteins. They differ by the number of internal states that they assume a protein to occupy, leaving open the…
