Biomolecular condensation of intrinsically disordered regions in P. falciparum and H. sapiens transcription factors
… driven by intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) in proteins, has emerged as a previously underappreciated mechanism of cellular compartmentalisation and regulation. The study of eukaryotic transcription has been revolutionised by the understanding that biomolecular condensates formed by …

Sequence-Based Properties that Identify Intrinsically Disordered Phase-Separating Protein Regions
… that contain intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs), which are regions that do not adopt stable tertiary or secondary structures. While at least 40% of the human proteome is classified as IDPs, only a subset exhibit phase separation behavior. Previous work created a computer algorithm called …

Characterizing Multivalent Interactions Between Folded Protein Domains and Intrinsically Disordered Regions or Peptide Substrates
… by its middle intrinsically disordered region (IDR). The two folded domains of UBQLN2, the UBL and UBA domains, asymmetrically modulate LLPS by interacting with the IDR. We characterized the LLPS-inhibiting UBL-IDR interaction to be relatively strong and involves the STI1-I, linkers, and the …

A Study of Reconnection Poleward of the Cusp: Cluster and Polar
… alter the structure of the ion diffusion region (IDR) in symmetric, collisionless reconnection. These features have been shown by numerical simulations under moderate density asymmetries (~10), and theoretical analyses. However, very few studies have addressed these issues with in-situ …

The Role of Phosphorylation In Pam2 Motif-Containing Proteins Mediated Messenger Rna Deadenylation
… inside the intrinsically disordered region (IDR) of its containing proteins. IDR is known to be a favored site for phosphorylation, and the PAM2 motif is surrounded by numerous potential phosphorylation sites. To test whether phosphorylation plays a role in controlling the interaction between …

Assessment and optimisation of digital radiography systems for clinical use
… followed by indirect digital radiography (IDR) systems. To ensure and maintain diagnostic quality and effectiveness in the radiology department appropriate methods are required to evaluate and optimise the performance of DR systems. Current semi-quantitative test object based methods …

Characterization of the Roles of Intrinsically Disordered Regions from RNA-Binding Proteins in Phase Separation
… containing intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs). I demonstrate that IDRs, coupled with RNA binding domain and RNA, can phase separate in vitro, producing dynamic liquid droplets. Over time, these droplets mature into more stable states, as assessed by slowed fluorescence recovery after …

Biophysical mechanisms of intrinsic protein disorder: lessons from a protein backbone model
Intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) in proteins populate a dynamic, heterogenous ensemble of structures. Proteins involved in the regulation of critical cellular functions rely on IDRs to carry out their functions. IDRs have been implicated in a number of diseases for which there are currently …

Stochastic prediction of collapse of building structures under seismic excitations
… with IDA. The maximum inter-storey drift ratio (IDR) is often selected as the measure to represent the global behavior of structural system in the PBEE framework (Cornell et al., 2002). Likewise, assumed threshold values based on IDR or on slope of IDA curve between IDR and elastic spectral …

WDR5 Network Analysis Using Ensemble Approaches
… the N-terminal intrinsically disordered region (IDR) of WDR5. Our work explores the self-association behavior catalyzed by this IDR and the potential ramifications of this self-association on WDR5's role inside the nucleus.</p>

Monitoring the Effects of the Oncogenic S250F Mutation on the Intrinsically Disordered C-terminal of FoxA1
… by two large intrinsically disordered regions (IDR). The C-terminal IDR is thought to play an important role for the pioneering activity of FoxA1. Mutations in FoxA1 have been strongly correlated with certain cancers, particularly breast cancer. A mutational hotspot found in FoxA1 in breast …

MOLECULAR REGULATION OF ATP-CITRATE LYASE
… located in an intrinsically disordered region (IDR). In this thesis, I analyze the cellular regulation of ACLY regarding alternative splicing and subcellular localization.Foremost, I identify epithelial splicing regulatory factor 1 (ESRP1) as one regulator of ACLY splicing. Although isoform …

Multiscale coarse-grained models for biological phase separation: Development and applications
… of a set of intranuclear proteins (*i.e.* MED1 IDR, BRD4 IDR, Nanog CTD, and DDX4 and DDX3 variants) qualitatively. Overall, our multiscale modelling approach shows great potential at bridging the gap between atom-level observables, to single-molecule behaviour, to macroscopic phase transitions, …

Functional dissection of the S. cerevisiae helicase activating factor Cdc45
… a predicted intrinsically disordered region (IDR). Oddly, a complete deletion of the IDR is dispensable for Cdc45 function in vivo. Mutants that failed to fully complement a CDC45 deletion in vivo were purified and tested for their ability to complement Cdc45 function biochemically. Purified …

The Nucleolar Protein Nucleophosmin Undergoes Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation with Arginine-Rich Nucleolar Proteins through Weak, Multivalent Electrostatic Interactions
… two within an intrinsically disordered region (IDR), confer additional multivalency and mediate interactions with proteins that contain multiple arginine-rich motifs (R-proteins). Using a variety of techniques, we have identified several nucleolar R-proteins which bind to and phase separate with …

Internal dispute resolution: the legal environment of complex public organizations
… the legalization of internal dispute resolution (IDR) in the Commonwealth tends to result in the circumvention of immediate supervisors in the formal grievance process, thereby obviating their positional authority to resolve employee grievances in a nonadversarial way. In sum, data supports the …
