RNA helicases are highly conserved proteins that use nucleoside triphosphates to bind or remodel RNA, RNA–protein complexes or both. RNA helicases are classified into the DEAD …
Prion-like low-complexity domains (PLCDs) are involved in the formation and regulation of distinct biomolecular condensates that form via phase separation coupled to percolation …
The development of cancer is intimately associated with genetic abnormalities that target proteins with intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs). In human haematological malignancies …
The formation of amyloid fibrils is a general class of protein self-assembly behaviour, which is associated with both functional biology and the development of a number of disorders …
