allosteric regulation

What are Examples of Allosteric Modulators in Toxicology?

Several well-known toxins function as allosteric modulators. For instance, cyanide acts as an allosteric inhibitor of cytochrome c oxidase, disrupting cellular respiration. Another example is the bacterial toxin cholera, which modifies the allosteric regulation of G-proteins, leading to excessive ion and water secretion in the intestines.
