Allosteric propagation results in communication between distinct sites in the protein structure; it also encodes specific effects on cellular pathways, and in this way it shapes cellular response. One example of long-range effects is binding of morphogens to cell-surface receptors, which initiates a cascade of protein interactions that leads to genome activation and specific cellular action. Allosteric propagation results from combinations of multiple factors; takes place through dynamic shifts of conformational ensembles; and affects the equilibria of macromolecular interactions. Here, we emphasize the well-known, yet still underappreciated role of allostery in conveying explicit signals across large multimolecular assemblies and distances to specify cellular action; the need for quantitation of the allosteric effects; and finally, we propose that each specific combination of allosteric effectors along the pathway spells a distinct function. The challenges are colossal; the inspiring reward will be predicting function, misfunction, and outcomes of drug regimes.
