Advanced Sampling Methods for Multiscale Simulation of Disordered Proteins and Dynamic Interactions

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are highly prevalent and play important roles in biology and human diseases. It is now also recognized that many IDPs remain dynamic even in specific complexes and functional assemblies.

Conformational entropy in molecular recognition of intrinsically disordered proteins.

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Structural Biology, 2023
Broad conformational ensembles make intrinsically disordered proteins or regions entropically intriguing. Although methodologically challenging and understudied, emerging studies into their changes in conformational entropy (ΔS°conf) upon complex ...

An Evolutionary Algorithm for the Design of Different Degrees of Secondary Structure in Intrinsically Disordered Proteins (IDPs) [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2015
In recent experimental studies of coupled folding and binding of IDPs investigators have adapted methods from the protein folding literature whereby point mutations are used to identify the degree to which different regions are pre-folded prior to the rate limiting step in binding and folding. These approaches assume a one-to-one correspondence between

Actinidia DRM1--an intrinsically disordered protein whose mRNA expression is inversely correlated with spring budbreak in kiwifruit. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are a relatively recently defined class of proteins which, under native conditions, lack a unique tertiary structure whilst maintaining essential biological functions.

Visualizing single-molecule conformational transition and binding dynamics of intrinsically disordered proteins

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) play crucial roles in cellular processes and hold promise as drug targets. However, the dynamic nature of IDPs remains poorly understood.

Polycation-π Interactions Are a Driving Force for Molecular Recognition by an Intrinsically Disordered Oncoprotein Family

open access: yes, 2013
Molecular recognition by intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) commonly involves specific localized contacts and target-induced disorder to order transitions.

Designing and repurposing drugs to target intrinsically disordered proteins for cancer treatment: using NUPR1 as a paradigm

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2019
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) do not have a well-defined structure, but they have key biological tasks in cancer development. By using the disordered cancer-related protein NUPR1 as a proof-of-concept, we have developed a new multidisciplinary

Deciphering Mode of Action of Functionally Important Regions in the Intrinsically Disordered Paxillin (Residues 1-313) Using Its Interaction with FAT (Focal Adhesion Targeting Domain of Focal Adhesion Kinase). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) play a major role in various cellular functions ranging from transcription to cell migration. Mutations/modifications in such IDPs are shown to be associated with various diseases.

Data–driven Modelling of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In this thesis we investigated the relationships between amino acid sequence and biophysical properties of intrinsically disordered proteins involved in Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease (IDPs), gauged from NMR ...
