Contents
Critical molecular events that control conformational transitions in most allosteric proteins are ill-defined. The mannose-specific FimH protein of
Escherichia coli
is a prototypic bacterial adhesin that switches from an ‘inactive’ low-affinity state (LAS) to an ‘active’ high-affinity state (HAS) conformation allosterically upon mannose bindi...
