Proteins often undergo large-scale conformational transitions, in which secondary and tertiary structure elements (loops, helices, and domains) change their structures or their positions with respect to each other. Simple considerations suggest that such dynamics should be relatively fast, but the functional cycles of many proteins are often relatively slow. Sophisticated experimental methods are starting to tackle this dichotomy and shed light on the contribution of large-scale conformational...

Quantitative Description of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins Using Single-Molecule FRET, NMR, and SAXS
Studying the conformational landscape of intrinsically disordered and partially folded proteins is challenging and only accessible to a few solution state techniques, such as nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), small-angle scattering techniques, and single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (smFRET). While each of the techniques is sensitive to different properties of the disordered chain, such as local structural propensities, overall dimension, or intermediate- and long-range...

Single-Molecule Force Spectroscopy Trajectories of a Single Protein and Its Polyproteins Are Equivalent: A Direct Experimental Validation Based on A Small Protein NuG2
Single-molecule force spectroscopy (SMFS) has become a powerful tool in investigating the mechanical unfolding/folding of proteins at the single-molecule level. Polyproteins made of tandem identical repeats have been widely used in atomic force microscopy (AFM)-based SMFS studies, where polyproteins not only serve as fingerprints to identify single-molecule stretching events, but may also improve statistics of data...
