Abstract
The human genome encodes more than 500 different protein kinases: signaling enzymes with tightly regulated activity. Enzymatic activity within the conserved kinase domain is influenced by numerous regulatory inputs including the binding of regulatory domains, substrates, and the effect of post-translational modifications such as autophosphorylation. Integration of these diverse inputs occurs via allosteric sites that relate signals via networks of amino acid residues to the active site and ensures controlled phosphorylation of kinase substrates. Here, we review mechanisms of allosteric regulation of protein kinases and recent advances in the field.
