Despite the recent advances in the prediction of protein structures by deep neutral networks, the elucidation of protein-folding mechanisms remains challenging. A promising theory for …
A longstanding goal in the field of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) is to characterize their structural heterogeneity and pinpoint the role of this heterogeneity in IDP function …

TipA, a MerR family transcription factor from Streptomyces lividans, promotes antibiotic resistance by sequestering broad-spectrum thiopeptide-based antibiotics, thus …
Statistical mechanical models that afford an intermediate resolution between macroscopic chemical models and all-atom simulations have been successful in capturing folding …
Over 40% of eukaryotic proteomes and 15% of bacterial proteomes are predicted to be intrinsically disordered based on their amino acid sequence. Intrinsically disordered proteins …
The relative magnitudes of noncovalent stabilization energies or the coupling free energies in folded proteins are anisotropically distributed, uniquely influencing folding and functional …
We investigate the conformational properties of the intrinsically disordered DNA-binding domain of CytR in the presence of the polymeric crowder polyethylene glycol (PEG) …
The intrinsically disordered DNA-binding domain of cytidine repressor (CytR-DBD) folds in the presence of target DNA and regulates the expression of multiple genes in E. coli. To …
