Databases for intrinsically disordered proteins [PDF]
Intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) lacking a fixed three-dimensional protein structure are widespread and play a central role in cell regulation. Only a small fraction of IDRs have been functionally characterized, with heterogeneous experimental evidence that is largely buried in the literature.

Intrinsically Disordered Proteins (IDPs), or protein fragments also called Intrinsically Disordered Regions (IDRs), display high flexibility as the result of their amino acid composition. They can adopt multiple roles.

Open questions: Reflections on intrinsically disordered proteins [PDF]
Intrinsically Disordered Proteins or Regions (IDPs) are proteins that lack a predetermined 3D structure playing key cellular functions including regulation, signaling, and protein-protein/DNA interaction.

Research in previous decades has shown that intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) and regions in proteins (IDRs) are as ubiquitous as highly ordered proteins. Despite this, research on IDPs and IDRs still has many gaps left to fill.

Background Intrinsically unstructured or disordered proteins function via interacting with other molecules. Annotation of these binding sites is the first step for mapping functional impact of genetic variants in coding regions of human and other genomes,

Intrinsically disordered proteins: modes of binding with emphasis on disordered domains
Our notions of protein function have long been determined by the protein structure–function paradigm. However, the idea that protein function is dictated by a prerequisite complementarity of shapes at the binding interface is becoming increasingly ...

Intrinsically Disordered Proteins in Chronic Diseases
It is now increasingly evident that a large fraction of the human proteome comprises proteins that, under physiological conditions, lack fixed, ordered 3D structures as a whole or have segments that are not likely to form a defined 3D structure [...]

Targeting Intrinsically Disordered Proteins through Dynamic Interactions
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are over-represented in major disease pathways and have attracted significant interest in understanding if and how they may be targeted using small molecules for therapeutic purposes.

Roles, Characteristics, and Analysis of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins: A Minireview
In recent years, there has been a growing understanding that a significant fraction of the eukaryotic proteome is intrinsically disordered, and that these conformationally dynamic proteins play a myriad of vital biological roles in both normal and ...
