Intrinsically disordered proteins.
Our understanding of protein function has been predominated by the view that proteins need to adopt a defined three dimensional structure to be able to carry out their function. Indeed, crystal structures of numerous proteins have been instrumental in establishing the structure– function paradigm. For example, the structures of numerous enzymes have highlighted the need for particular chemical ...
متن کاملIntrinsically Disordered Proteins
In the same way that neither a messy lab bench nor a clean one is a reliable indicator of a researcher’s productivity, a protein’s function cannot be judged solely on the basis of its neatly folded and stable domains. As evidenced by recent work discussed in this Select, we are learning that intrinsically disordered regions feature in many of the cell’s most productive multitaskers, proteins wh...
متن کاملStructural flexibility of intrinsically disordered proteins induces stepwise target recognition.
An intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) lacks a stable three-dimensional structure, while it folds into a specific structure when it binds to a target molecule. In some IDP-target complexes, not all target binding surfaces are exposed on the outside, and intermediate states are observed in their binding processes. We consider that stepwise target recognition via intermediate states is a chara...
متن کاملMolecular recognition of intrinsically disordered proteins: theory, predictions and applications
In the last decade of the 20 th century the results of high-throughput genomic studies drastically changed our view of structures and biological roles of proteins. Until the early 1990's the basic assumption of structural biology was that the structure of a protein is indispensable to its proper function. However, the accumulation of known proteins contradicting this 'structure-function paradig...
متن کاملIntrinsically Disordered Proteins in Biomineralization
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) have the potential to play a unique role in the study of proteins and the relationships between structure and function. Intrinsic disorder affects chemical and cellular events such as cell signaling, macromolecular self-assembly, protein removal and crystal nucleation and growth. This chapter explores the structural principles by which IDPs act and revea...
