Background Protein is an essential component of human diet and can be applied to many
aspects in food systems due to its abundant nutritional value and functional properties …

Bioactive peptides (BPs) derived from animal and plant proteins are important food
functional ingredients with many promising health-promoting properties. In the food industry …

Exosomes (EXOs) are nano-sized vesicles secreted by most cell types. They are abundant
in bio-fluids and harbor specific molecular constituents from their parental cells. Due to these …

Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) and regions (IDRs) have emerged as key players
across many biological functions and diseases. Differently from structured proteins …

Biophysical characterization of protein–protein interactions involving disordered proteins is
challenging. A common simplification is to measure the thermodynamics and kinetics of …

The concept of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) has emerged relatively slowly, but
