Intrinsic Structural Disorder in Cytoskeletal Proteins [PDF]

open access: yesCytoskeleton, 2013
Cytoskeleton, the internal scaffold of the cell, displays an exceptional combination of stability and dynamics. It is composed of three major filamentous networks, microfilaments (actin filaments), intermediate filaments (neurofilaments), and microtubules.

Abundance of intrinsic disorder in SV-IV, a multifunctional androgen-dependent protein secreted from rat seminal vesicle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
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 ...

Insights into the regulation of intrinsically disordered proteins in the human proteome by analyzing sequence and gene expression data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
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.

Inferring function using patterns of native disorder in proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Natively unstructured regions are a common feature of eukaryotic proteomes. Between 30% and 60% of proteins are predicted to contain long stretches of disordered residues, and not only have many of these regions been confirmed experimentally, but they ...

Inherent structural disorder and dimerisation of murine norovirus NS1-2 protein [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
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 ...

Intrinsic Disorder and Posttranslational Modifications: The Darker Side of the Biological Dark Matter

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2018
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) and intrinsically disordered protein regions (IDPRs) are functional proteins and domains that devoid stable secondary and/or tertiary structure.

Theater in the Self-Cleaning Cell: Intrinsically Disordered Proteins or Protein Regions Acting with Membranes in Autophagy

open access: yesMembranes, 2022
Intrinsically disordered proteins and protein regions (IDPs/IDPRs) are mainly involved in signaling pathways, where fast regulation, temporal interactions, promiscuous interactions, and assemblies of structurally diverse components including membranes ...

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Long-Range Entropic Effects on Protein Intrinsically Disordered Regions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Entropy calculations represent one of the most challenging steps in obtaining the binding free energy in proteins and their complexes, which is a grand challenge in computational biology.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...
