Allosteric Protein Definition:
A protein in which binding of a molecule to one site changes the conformation of a remote site and alters its interaction with a second molecule..
Molecular Biology by Robert F. Weaver
Allosteric Protein Notes:
An allosteric protein is one, with multiple ligand binding sites. The binding of a molecule at one site changes the conformation of love and ligand binding at another site. This is called co-operative binding. The term allosteric is derived from Greek, "allo", meaning "other" and "steric" meaning "space".
