Databases for intrinsically disordered proteins [PDF]

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section D Structural Biology, 2022
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.

Fairy tails: Flexibility and function of intrinsically disordered extensions in the photosynthetic world

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2015
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]

open access: yesNetwork Biology, 2021
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.

Identification of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins and Regions in a Non-Model Insect Species Ostrinia nubilalis (Hbn.)

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
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.

DisBind: A database of classified functional binding sites in disordered and structured regions of intrinsically disordered proteins

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2017
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

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2021
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

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2019
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

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
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.

Machine-learning analysis of intrinsically disordered proteins identifies key factors that contribute to neurodegeneration-related aggregation

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022
Protein structure is determined by the amino acid sequence and a variety of post-translational modifications, and provides the basis for physiological properties.

Roles, Characteristics, and Analysis of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins: A Minireview

open access: yesLife, 2020
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 ...
