The breast cancer susceptibility 1 (BRCA1) protein plays a pivotal role in modulating the transcriptional activity of the vital intrinsically disordered transcription factor MYC. In this regard, mutations of BRCA1 and interruption of its regulatory activity are related to hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC). Interestingly, so far, MYC's main dimerization partner MAX (MYC-associated factor X) has not been found to bind BRCA1 despite a high sequence similarity between both oncoproteins....

NMR Relaxation Experiments Probe Monomer-Fibril Interaction and Identify Critical Interacting Residues Responsible for Distinct Tau Fibril Morphologies
Tau aggregation is governed by secondary processes, a major pathological pathway for tau protein fibril propagation, yet its molecular mechanism remains unknown. This work uses saturation transfer and lifetime line-broadening experiments to identify the critical residues involved in these secondary processes. Distinct residue-specific NMR relaxation parameters were obtained for the truncated three repeat tau construct (K19) in equilibrium...

[NMR paper] The thermodynamic basis of the fuzzy interaction of an intrinsically disordered protein
The thermodynamic basis of the fuzzy interaction of an intrinsically disordered protein
Many intrinsically disordered proteins (IDP) that fold upon binding retain conformational heterogeneity in IDP-target complexes. The thermodynamics of such fuzzy interactions is poorly understood. Here we introduce a thermodynamic framework, based on analysis of ITC and CD spectroscopy data, that provides experimental description of IDP association in terms of folding and binding contributions which can be predicted using sequence folding propensities and molecular modeling. We show how IDP can...

Abstract
Proteins, which, in their native conditions, sample a multitude of distinct conformational states characterized by high spatiotemporal heterogeneity, most often termed as intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs), have become a target of broad interest over the past 15years. With the growing evidence of their...
