Epistasis shapes the fitness landscape of an allosteric specificity switch
Epistasis plays an important role in the evolution of novel protein functions because it determines the mutational path a protein takes. Here, the authors combine functional, structural and biophysical analyses to characterize epistasis in a computationally redesigned ligand-inducible allosteric tra...
