| Abstract | Allostery is fundamentally thermodynamic in nature. Long-range communication in proteins may be mediated not only by changes in the mean conformation with enthalpic contribution but also by changes in dynamic fluctuations with entropic contribution. The important role of protein motions in mediating allosteric interactions has been established by NMR spectroscopy. By using CAP as a model system, we have shown how changes in protein structure and internal dynamics can allosterically regulate protein function and activity. The results indicate that changes in conformational entropy can give rise to binding enhancement, binding inhibition, or have no effect in the expected affinity, depending on the magnitude and sign of enthalpy–entropy compensation. Moreover, allosteric interactions can be regulated by the modulation a low-populated conformation states that serve as on-pathway intermediates for ligand binding. Taken together, the interplay between fast internal motions, which are intimately related to conformational entropy, and slow internal motions, which are related to poorly populated conformational states, can regulate protein activity in a way that cannot be predicted on the basis of the protein’s ground-state structure. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
