Connecting the αα-hubs: same fold, disordered ligands, new functions

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2021
Background Signal fidelity depends on protein–protein interaction–‘hubs’ integrating cues from large interactomes. Recently, and based on a common secondary structure motif, the αα-hubs were defined, which are small α-helical domains of large, modular ...

Intrinsic Disorder of the C-Terminal Domain of Drosophila Methoprene-Tolerant Protein. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Methoprene tolerant protein (Met) has recently been confirmed as the long-sought juvenile hormone (JH) receptor. This protein plays a significant role in the cross-talk of the 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) and JH signalling pathways, which are important for ...

The N-terminal intrinsically disordered domain of mgm101p is localized to the mitochondrial nucleoid. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The mitochondrial genome maintenance gene, MGM101, is essential for yeasts that depend on mitochondrial DNA replication. Previously, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, it has been found that the carboxy-terminal two-thirds of Mgm101p has a functional core ...

Modulation of the disordered conformational ensembles of the p53 transactivation domain by cancer-associated mutations. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2015
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are frequently associated with human diseases such as cancers, and about one-fourth of disease-associated missense mutations have been mapped into predicted disordered regions.

Advanced Sampling Methods for Multiscale Simulation of Disordered Proteins and Dynamic Interactions

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are highly prevalent and play important roles in biology and human diseases. It is now also recognized that many IDPs remain dynamic even in specific complexes and functional assemblies.

Expose flexible conformations for intrinsically disordered protein

open access: yesCurrent Research in Structural Biology
The folding conformation of native protein has flexibility in different degrees, which may bring difficulty in presenting the structures, and also it causes complexity in understanding the relationship between structure and functions.

Distribution of Charged Residues Affects the Average Size and Shape of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are ensembles of interconverting conformers whose conformational properties are governed by several physico-chemical factors, including their amino acid composition and the arrangement of oppositely charged ...

Globular and disordered – the non-identical twins in protein-protein interactions

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2015
In biology proteins from different structural classes interact across and within classes in ways that are optimized to achieve balanced functional outputs.

Low-resolution description of the conformational space for intrinsically disordered proteins

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDP) are at the center of numerous biological processes, and attract consequently extreme interest in structural biology.

Protein intrinsically disordered region prediction by combining neural architecture search and multi-objective genetic algorithm

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2023
Background Intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are widely distributed in proteins and related to many important biological functions. Accurately identifying IDRs is of great significance for protein structure and function analysis.
