A critical evaluation of correlated mutation algorithms and coevolution within allosteric mechanisms.

Abstract excerpt

The notion of using the evolutionary history encoded within multiple sequence alignments to predict allosteric mechanisms is appealing. In this approach, correlated mutations are expected to reflect coordinated changes that maintain intramolecular coupling between residue pairs. Despite much early fanfare, the general suitability of correlated mutations to predict allosteric couplings has not yet been...
