This book provides a coherent, clear, and uniform presentation of structural, genetic, molecular, and biochemical information available for the ZP domain and ZPDC-proteins.[...]
The intersection of molecular chaperones and neurodegeneration is an intensely studied area because of the potential of manipulating the expression of molecular chaperones to thwart the progression of debilitating diseases. Encompassing contributions from leading experts, "Molecular Chaperones and P[...]
This book provides an overview on what researchers have learned about unfolded peptides and how this knowledge facilitates the understanding of (a) the folding process, (b) the binding of ligands to receptor molecules and (c) peptide self-aggregation. In this context different experimental, theoreti[...]
In this brief, Vladimir Uversky discusses the paradigm-shifting phenomenon of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) and hybrid proteins containing ordered domains and functional IDP regions (IDPRs). Beginning with an introduction to the concept of protein intrinsic disorder, Uversky then goes on [...]
