Abstract:
Intrinsically Disordered Proteins (IDPs) and Regions (IDRs) exist widely. Although without well-defined structures, they participate in many important biological processes. In addition, they are also widely related to human diseases and have become potential targets in drug discovery. However, there is a big gap between the experimental annotations related to IDPs/IDRs and their actual number. In recent decades, the computational methods related to IDPs/IDRs have been developed vigorously, including predicting IDPs/IDRs, the binding modes of IDPs/IDRs, the binding sites of IDPs/IDRs, and the m

Background: Screening for diabetes using the Indian Diabetes Risk Score (IDRS) is an inexpensive yet effective way of early diagnosis. Aims and Objectives: The present study was conducted to assess the risk of developing diabetes among individuals in rural field practice areas using IDRS. Materials and Methods: A community-based observational study was conducted among persons aged 20 years and older in the rural field practice area for 2 months. A semi-structured interview schedule, including the “IDRS” questionnaire, was used to obtain the data. Results: Out of 1100 subjects, around 50% were

Abstract:
Abstract Inimex Innate Defence Regulators (IDRs) are novel, synthetic immunomodulatory peptides that protect against infections by selectively activating the innate immune system while regulating inflammation. The multi-faceted effects of IDRs are mediated primarily by monocytes and macrophages. These cells respond to IDRs by selectively increasing the expression of cell surface receptors, and cytokines and chemokines (MCP-1, MCP-3 and CCL-5) which trigger the recruitment and activation of immune cells to the site of the infection. In addition, IDRs control inflammation by enhancing the expres

Here, an overview of the publicly available knowledge about IDRs is reported, including manually curated resources, deposition databases and prediction repositories.

The abundance of intrinsic disorder in the protein realm and its role in a variety of physiological and pathological cellular events have strengthened the interest of the scientific community in understanding the structural and dynamical properties of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) and regions (IDRs). Attempts at rationalizing the general principles underlying both conformational properties and transitions of IDPs/IDRs must consider the abundance of charged residues (Asp, Glu, Lys, and Arg) that typifies these proteins, rendering them assimilable to polyampholytes or polyelectrolytes

Research in previous decades has shown that intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) and regions in proteins (IDRs) are as ubiquitous as highly ordered proteins. Despite this, research on IDPs and IDRs still has many gaps left to fill. Here, we present an approach that combines wet lab methods with bioinformatics tools to identify and analyze intrinsically disordered proteins in a non-model insect species that is cold-hardy. Due to their known resilience to the effects of extreme temperatures, these proteins likely play important roles in this insect’s adaptive mechanisms to sub-zero temperatu

Stochastic signaling dynamics expand living cells’ information processing capabilities. An increasing number of studies report that regulators encode information in their pulsatile dynamics. The evolutionary mechanisms that lead to complex signaling dynamics remain uncharacterized, perhaps because key interactions of signaling proteins are encoded in intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs), whose evolution is difficult to analyze.

Proteins containing intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are ubiquitous within biomolecular condensates, which are liquid-like compartments within cells formed through liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS). The sequence of amino acids of a protein encodes its phase behaviour, not only by establishing the patterning and chemical nature (e.g., hydrophobic, polar, charged) of the various binding sites that facilitate multivalent interactions, but also by dictating the protein conformational dynamics. Besides behaving as random coils, IDRs can exhibit a wide-range of structural behaviours, incl

Indian Diabetes Risk Score (IDRS) was assessed among 2,847 adults aged 30 and above living in urban and rural areas in India. Data showed that 41.3% of participants were at high risk (IDRS ≥60) and these individuals often had obesity, a family history of the disease and a sedentary way of life. IDRS was found to be trustworthy, affordable and easy on patients. It is valuable for discovering diabetes at the earliest stage. Thus, this approach can be used in diabetes prevention programs across India.
