Abstract excerpt
Structure, function, and evolution are interdependent properties of proteins. Diversity of protein functions arising from structural variations is a potential driving force behind protein evolvability. Intrinsically disordered proteins or regions (IDPs or IDRs) lack well-defined structure under normal physiological conditions, yet, they are highly functional. Increased occurrence of IDPs in eukaryotes compared to...
