Estradiol induces allosteric coupling and partitioning of sex-hormone-binding globulin monomers among conformational states
Summary: Sex-hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) regulates the transport and bioavailability of estradiol. The dynamics of estradiol's binding to SHBG are incompletely understood, although it is believed that estradiol binds to each monomer of SHBG dimer with identical affinity (Kd ∼2 nM). Contrary...
