MobiDB: intrinsically disordered proteins in 2021 [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2020
AbstractThe MobiDB database (URL: https://mobidb.org/) provides predictions and annotations for intrinsically disordered proteins. Here, we report recent developments implemented in MobiDB version 4, regarding the database format, with novel types of annotations and an improved update process.

Troponins, intrinsic disorder, and cardiomyopathy

open access: yesBiological Chemistry, 2016
AbstractCardiac troponin is a dynamic complex of troponin C, troponin I, and troponin T (TnC, TnI, and TnT, respectively) found in the myocyte thin filament where it plays an essential role in cardiac muscle contraction. Mutations in troponin subunits are found in inherited cardiomyopathies, such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and dilated ...

Comparative Assessment of Intrinsic Disorder Predictions with a Focus on Protein and Nucleic Acid-Binding Proteins

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
With over 60 disorder predictors, users need help navigating the predictor selection task. We review 28 surveys of disorder predictors, showing that only 11 include assessment of predictive performance.

Intrinsically disordered proteins and their (disordered) proteomes in neurodegenerative disorders [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2015
The recent years have witnessed a rise in the number of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs), also known as hybrid proteins, which possess both structured domains and biologically important intrinsically disordered protein regions (IDPRs). These proteins challenge the “one sequence—one structure—one function” concept by demonstrating that the lack ...

Intrinsic disorder within AKAP79 fine-tunes anchored phosphatase activity toward substrates and drug sensitivity

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Scaffolding the calcium/calmodulin-dependent phosphatase 2B (PP2B, calcineurin) focuses and insulates termination of local second messenger responses.

Super Spy variants implicate flexibility in chaperone action

open access: yeseLife, 2014
Experimental study of the role of disorder in protein function is challenging. It has been proposed that proteins utilize disordered regions in the adaptive recognition of their various binding partners.

Intrinsic disorder in the kinesin superfamily

open access: yesBiophysical Reviews, 2012
Kinesin molecular motors perform a myriad of intracellular transport functions. While their mechanochemical mechanisms are well understood and well-conserved throughout the superfamily, the cargo-binding and regulatory mechanisms governing the activity of kinesins are highly diverse and in general, are incompletely characterized.

Abundance Imparts Evolutionary Constraints of Similar Magnitude on the Buried, Surface, and Disordered Regions of Proteins

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
An understanding of the forces shaping protein conservation is key, both for the fundamental knowledge it represents and to allow for optimal use of evolutionary information in practical applications. Sequence conservation is typically examined at one of

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...
