Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation Associated with Intrinsically Disordered Proteins: Experimental and Computational Tools.
The phenomenon of Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation (LLPS) serves as a vital mechanism for the spatial organization of biomolecules, significantly influencing the elementary processes within the cellular milieu. Intrinsically disordered proteins, or proteins endowed with intrinsically disordered regions, are pivotal in driving this biophysical process, thereby dictating the formation of non-membranous cellular compartments. Compelling evidence has linked aberrations in LLPS to the pathogenesis of various neurodegenerative diseases, underscored by the disordered proteins' proclivity to form pathological aggregates. This study meticulously evaluates the arsenal of contemporary experimental and computational methodologies dedicated to the examination of intrinsically disordered proteins within the context of LLPS. Through a discerning discourse on the capabilities and constraints of these investigative techniques, we unravel the intricate contributions of these ubiquitous proteins to LLPS and neurodegeneration. Moreover, we project a future trajectory for the field, contemplating on innovative research tools and their potential to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of LLPS, with the ultimate goal of fostering new therapeutic avenues for combating neurodegenerative disorders.
期刊介绍：
Current Protein & Peptide Science publishes full-length/mini review articles on specific aspects involving proteins, peptides, and interactions between the enzymes, the binding interactions of hormones and their receptors; the properties of transcription factors and other molecules that regulate gene expression; the reactions leading to the immune response; the process of signal transduction; the structure and function of proteins involved in the cytoskeleton and molecular motors; the properties of membrane channels and transporters; and the generation and storage of metabolic energy. In addition, reviews of experimental studies of protein folding and design are given special emphasis. Manuscripts submitted to Current Protein and Peptide Science should cover a field by discussing research from the leading laboratories in a field and should pose questions for future studies. Original papers, research articles and letter articles/short communications are not considered for publication in Current Protein & Peptide Science.
