Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHigh Incidence of Disorder-Promoting Amino Acids in the Amino Terminus of Mature Proteins in Bacillus subtilisGuangqiang Wang, Yining Dong, Haiqin Chen et al.Problem statement: Exported polypeptides are usually synthesized as preproteins which are composed with mature domains and the signal peptides. The foreign proteins are usually inefficiently secreted by the aid of signal peptides. Although we know that the mature protein played an important role in the protein export process, we do not know what properties of the mature domains are critical … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 2 Feb 2012 · 8,255 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntrinsically Unstructured Proteins: Potential Targets for Drug DiscoveryPathan Salma, Chintan Chhatbar, Sriram SeshadriProblem statement: The function of a protein is dependent on its three-dimensional structure. However, numerous proteins lacking intrinsic globular 3D structure under physiological conditions had been recognized. These proteins are frequently involved in some of the most critical cellular control mechanisms and it appears that their rapid turnover, aided by their unstructured nature in the unbound state, provides a level … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,578 accessesView PDF Cite
