"Dancing protein clouds: Intrinsically disordered proteins in the norm and pathology" represents a set of selected studies on a variety of research topics related to intrinsically disordered proteins. Topics in this update include structural and functional characterization of several important intrinsically disordered proteins, such as 14-3-3 proteins and their partners, as well as proteins from muscle sarcomere; representation of intrinsic disorder-related concept of protein structure-function continuum; discussion of the role of intrinsic disorder in phenotypic switching; consideration of the role of intrinsically disordered proteins in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases and cancer; discussion of the roles of intrinsic disorder in functional amyloids; demonstration of the usefulness of the analysis of translational diffusion of unfolded and intrinsically disordered proteins; consideration of various computational tools for evaluation of functions of intrinsically disordered regions; and discussion of the role of shear stress in the amyloid formation of intrinsically disordered regions in the brain.
Scientists working in the fields of biochemistry, biophysics, molecular medicine, biotechnology, pharmacology and drug discovery, molecular and cellular biology, as well as students of Medical Schools, Departments of Biochemistry, Biophysics, Molecular Biology, Biotechnology, Cell Biology, etc. This book is of interest to everybody, who is fascinated by the protein intrinsic disorder phenomenon, including graduate students, postdoctoral students, and experienced researchers studying intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs), their structures, and functions
