Understanding the Binding Induced Folding of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins by Protein Engineering: Caveats and Pitfalls

Many proteins lack a well-defined three-dimensional structure in isolation. These proteins, typically denoted as intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs), may display a characteristic disorder-to-order transition when binding their physiological partner(s). From an experimental perspective, it is of...
