| allosteric site | A specific site on a multi-subunit enzyme or other protein that is not the substrate binding site, but that when reversibly bound by an effector, induces a conformational change in the protein, altering its catalytic or binding properties. (12 Dec 1998) |
| allosterism | The influencing of an enzyme activity, or the binding of a ligand to a protein, by a change in the conformation of the protein, brought about by the binding of a substrate or other effector at a site (allosteric site) other than the active site of the protein. Compare: cooperativity, hysteresis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| allostery | A phenomenon in which a small ligand binds to a receptor site ona protein, changes the shape of the protein and thus changes the specificityof a second site (either anotherreceptor or an enzyme activesite) on that protein. (09 Oct 1997) |
| allotetraploid | Relating to a hybrid individual or cell with two or more sets of chromosomes derived from two different ancestral species; depending on the number of multiples of haploid sets, alloploid's are referred to as allodiploids, allotriploids, allotetraploids, allopentaploids, allohexaploids, etc. See: heterokaryon.
