Environment-Specific Force Field for Intrinsically Disordered and Ordered Proteins [PDF]
The need for accurate and efficient force fields for modeling 3D structures of macrobiomolecules and in particular intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) has increased with recent findings to associate IDPs and human diseases.

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.

CARs-DB: A Database of Cryptic Amyloidogenic Regions in Intrinsically Disordered Proteins
Proteome-wide analyses suggest that most globular proteins contain at least one amyloidogenic region, whereas these aggregation-prone segments are thought to be underrepresented in intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs).

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 critical for constructing an accurate predictor because disordered region distributions show global

RFPR-IDP: reduce the false positive rates for intrinsically disordered protein and region prediction by incorporating both fully ordered proteins and disordered proteins [PDF]
AbstractAs an important type of proteins, intrinsically disordered proteins/regions (IDPs/IDRs) are related to many crucial biological functions. Accurate prediction of IDPs/IDRs is beneficial to the prediction of protein structures and functions. Most of the existing methods ignore the fully ordered proteins without IDRs during training and test ...

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.

Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) populate a range of conformations that are best described by a heterogeneous ensemble. Grouping an IDP ensemble into “structurally similar” clusters for visualization, interpretation, and analysis purposes is a ...

Order, Disorder, and Everything in Between
In addition to the “traditional” proteins characterized by the unique crystal-like structures needed for unique functions, it is increasingly recognized that many proteins or protein regions (collectively known as intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs)

A novel mode of interaction between intrinsically disordered proteins
An increasing number of proteins, which have neither regular secondary nor well-defined tertiary structures, have been found to be present in cells. The structure of these proteins is highly flexible and disordered under physiological (native) conditions,

The IDP-Specific Force Field ff14IDPSFF Improves the Conformer Sampling of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins [PDF]
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) or intrinsically disordered regions do not have a fixed tertiary structure but play key roles in signal regulation, molecule recognition, and drug targeting. However, it is difficult to study the structure and function of IDPs by traditional experimental methods because of their diverse conformations ...
