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.

On the Origins of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins [PDF]
A large number of proteins are sufficiently unstable that their full three dimensional structure cannot be resolved. The origins of this intrinsic disorder are not well understood, but its ubiquitous presence undercuts the principle that a protein's structure determines its function.

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,

Evolutionary Study of Disorder in Protein Sequences
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) contain regions lacking intrinsic globular structure (intrinsically disordered regions, IDRs). IDPs are present across the tree of life, with great variability of IDR type and frequency even between closely ...

How multisite phosphorylation impacts the conformations of intrinsically disordered proteins
Phosphorylation of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) can produce changes in structural and dynamical properties and thereby mediate critical biological functions.

Intrinsically disordered proteins and biomineralization [PDF]
In vertebrates and invertebrates, biomineralization is controlled by the cell and the proteins they produce. A large number of these proteins are intrinsically disordered, gaining some secondary structure when they interact with their binding partners.

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.

Protein structure is determined by the amino acid sequence and a variety of post-translational modifications, and provides the basis for physiological properties.

New insights into disordered proteins and regions according to the FOD-M model
A collection of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) having regions with the status of intrinsically disordered (IDR) according to the Disprot database was analyzed from the point of view of the structure of hydrophobic core in the structural unit ...

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 ...
