Protein dynamics and conformational selection in bidirectional signal transduction

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Protein conformational dynamics simultaneously allow promiscuity and specificity in binding. The multiple conformations of the free EphA4 ligand-binding domain observed in two new EphA4 crystal structures provide a unique insight into the conformational dynamics...
