Empirical predictions of an intrinsically disordered protein theory approach to glycan/lectin reaction kinetics
Newly-developed methods from the theory of intrinsically disordered proteins can be applied to the flexible glycan structures that coat cellular surfaces and provide rich channels for biological information transmission. Extension of a mechanistic ‘arm-in-sleeve’ model via a nonrigid molecule symmetry analysis leads to expectation of empirical observation of punctuated ‘spectral’ classification...
متن کاملMultiparametric analysis of intrinsically disordered proteins: looking at intrinsic disorder through compound eyes.
Intrinsically disordered proteins are highly abundant in various proteomes. They are different from ordered proteins at many levels, and their structural and functional characterization requires special experimental and computational tools.
متن کاملEPR in protein science : intrinsically disordered proteins.
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) form a unique protein category characterized by the absence of a well-defined structure and by remarkable conformational flexibility. Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectroscopy combined with site-directed spin labeling (SDSL) is amongst the most suitable methods to unravel their structure and dynamics. This review summarizes the tremendous method...
متن کاملTesting the transferability of a coarse-grained model to intrinsically disordered proteins.
The intermediate-resolution coarse-grained protein model PLUM [T. Bereau and M. Deserno, J. Chem. Phys., 2009, 130, 235106] is used to simulate small systems of intrinsically disordered proteins involved in biomineralisation. With minor adjustments to reduce bias toward stable secondary structure, the model generates conformational ensembles conforming to structural predictions from atomistic s...
متن کاملDetection of correlated conformational fluctuations in intrinsically disordered proteins through paramagnetic relaxation interference.
Functionally relevant conformational states of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are typically concealed in a vast space of fast interconverting structures. Here we present a novel methodology, NMR-based paramagnetic relaxation interference (PRI), that allows for direct observation of concerted motions and cooperatively folded sub-states in IDPs. The proposed NMR technique is based on th...
