Emergence of allosteric drug-resistance mutations: new challenges for allosteric drug discovery

Allosteric drugs have several significant advantages over traditional orthosteric drugs, encompassing higher selectivity and lower toxicity. Although allosteric drugs have potential advantages as therapeutic agents to treat human diseases, allosteric drug-resistance mutations still occur, rendering these drugs ineffective. Here, we review the emergence of allosteric drug-resistance mutations with an emphasis on examples covering clinically...
