Residual structure within the disordered C‐terminal segment of p21Waf1/Cip1/Sdi1 and its implications for molecular recognition

Abstract: Probably the most unusual class of proteins in nature is the intrinsically unstructured proteins (IUPs), because they are not structured yet play essential roles in protein-protein signaling. Many IUPs can bind different proteins, and in many cases, adopt different bound conformations. The p21 protein is a small IUP (164 residues) that is ubiquitous in cellular signaling, for example, cell cycle control, apoptosis, transcription, differentiation, and so forth; it binds to approximately 25 targets. How does thi… Show more

“…Its structural plasticity allows it to adopt both a-helical and extended structures. Interestingly, the bound conformations of p21 were found to exist in the conformational ensemble of its unbound state, supporting a conformational selection mechanism for p21's binding promiscuity (Yoon et al 2009). …”

“…This approach is effective when the partially unfolded state represents a relatively small perturbation from the folded state, and the structure of the folded state is known (Fuentes et al 2005). Another approach that makes use of chemical shift information is the energy-minima mapping and weighting (EMW) method (Huang and Stultz 2008;Yoon et al 2009). The EMW method consists of three steps: conformational sampling, ensemble generation, and validation.…”

“…Thus, conformational dynamics is believed to represent a major functional advantage for the IDPs, enabling them to interact with a broad range of biological targets under normal physiological conditions where their expression is tightly regulated [15,16]. However, experimental evidence demonstrating conformational dynamics in IDPs is limited to only a few examples [1725]. …”
