Sequence complexity of amyloidogenic regions in intrinsically disordered human proteins.
An amyloidogenic region (AR) in a protein sequence plays a significant role in protein aggregation and amyloid formation. We have investigated the sequence complexity of AR that is present in intrinsically disordered human proteins.

Expanded Interactome of the Intrinsically Disordered Protein Dss1 [PDF]
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.

Mutations of Intrinsically Disordered Protein Regions Can Drive Cancer but Lack Therapeutic Strategies [PDF]
Many proteins contain intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) which carry out important functions without relying on a single well-defined conformation.

Rapid evolution of virus sequences in intrinsically disordered protein regions. [PDF]
Nodamura Virus (NoV) is a nodavirus originally isolated from insects that can replicate in a wide variety of hosts, including mammals. Because of their simplicity and ability to replicate in many diverse hosts, NoV, and the Nodaviridae in general ...

Accurate Prediction of Drug Resistance for Intrinsically Disordered Protein Regions [PDF]
Relative alchemical binding free energy calculations can be used to predict the effect of amino acid mutations on ligand binding affinities. However, these protocols are not well established for proteins containing intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs).

IDP⁻CRF: Intrinsically Disordered Protein/Region Identification Based on Conditional Random Fields. [PDF]
Accurate prediction of intrinsically disordered proteins/regions is one of the most important tasks in bioinformatics, and some computational predictors have been proposed to solve this problem. How to efficiently incorporate the sequence-order effect is

Many different intrinsically disordered proteins and proteins with intrinsically disordered regions are associated with neurodegenerative diseases. These types of proteins including amyloid-β, tau, α-synuclein, CHCHD2, CHCHD10, and G-protein coupled receptors are increasingly becoming evaluated as potential drug targets in the pharmaceutical-based ...

Intrinsically disordered regions in autophagy proteins [PDF]
ABSTRACTAutophagy is an essential eukaryotic pathway required for cellular homeostasis. Numerous key autophagy effectors and regulators have been identified, but the mechanism by which they carry out their function in autophagy is not fully understood.

Phosphorylation of Intrinsically Disordered Regions in Remorin Proteins [PDF]
Plant-specific remorin proteins reside in subdomains of plasma membranes, originally termed membrane rafts. They probably facilitate cellular signal transduction by direct interaction with signaling proteins such as receptor-like kinases and may dynamically modulate their lateral segregation within plasma membranes.
