Ca2+ binding induced sequential allosteric activation of sortase A: An example for ion-triggered conformational selection.
The allosteric activation of the intrinsically disordered enzyme Staphylococcus aureus sortase A is initiated via binding of a Ca2+ ion. Although Ca2+ binding was shown to initiate structural changes inducing disorder-to-order transitions, the details of the allosteric activation mechanism remain el...
