[Intrinsically disordered proteins]. [PDF]
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) belong to the newly discovered and still growing group of proteins. In contrast to globular proteins IDPs fail to fold into a well-defined tertiary structure under physiological conditions and they are characterized by extraordinary structural flexibility and plasticity.

Expanded Interactome of the Intrinsically Disordered Protein Dss1
Summary: Dss1 (also known as Sem1) is a conserved, intrinsically disordered protein with a remarkably broad functional diversity. It is a proteasome subunit but also associates with the BRCA2, RPA, Csn12-Thp1, and TREX-2 complexes.

Insights into the regulation of intrinsically disordered proteins in the human proteome by analyzing sequence and gene expression data [PDF]
Background: Disordered proteins need to be expressed to carry out specified functions; however, their accumulation in the cell can potentially cause major problems through protein misfolding and aggregation.

Conformational Recognition of an Intrinsically Disordered Protein [PDF]
There is a growing interest in understanding the properties of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs); however, the characterization of these states remains an open challenge. IDPs appear to have functional roles that diverge from those of folded proteins and revolve around their ability to act as hubs for protein-protein interactions.

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

Abundance of intrinsic disorder in SV-IV, a multifunctional androgen-dependent protein secreted from rat seminal vesicle [PDF]
The potent immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory and procoagulant properties of the protein no. 4 secreted from the rat seminal vesicle epithelium (SV-IV) have been previously found to be modulated by a supramolecular monomer-trimer ...

Preparation of Bioderived and Biodegradable Surfactants Based on an Intrinsically Disordered Protein Sequence [PDF]
Surfactants, block-copolymers, and other types of micellar systems are used in a wide variety of biomedical and industrial processes. However, most commonly used surfactants are synthetically derived and pose environmental and toxicological concerns ...

Inherent structural disorder and dimerisation of murine norovirus NS1-2 protein [PDF]
Human noroviruses are highly infectious viruses that cause the majority of acute, non-bacterial epidemic gastroenteritis cases worldwide. The first open reading frame of the norovirus RNA genome encodes for a polyprotein that is cleaved by the viral ...
