Mutations to transcription factor MAX allosterically increase DNA selectivity by altering folding and binding pathways

Abstract Understanding how proteins discriminate between preferred and non-preferred ligands (‘selectivity’) is essential for predicting biological function and a central goal of protein engineering efforts, yet the biophysical mechanisms underpinning selectivity remain poorly understood. Towards th...
