Many proteins and protein regions are disordered in their native, biologically active states. These proteins/regions are abundant
in different organisms and carry out important biological functions that complement the functional repertoire of ordered proteins.
Viruses, with their highly compact genomes, small proteomes, and high adaptability for fast change in their biological and
physical environment utilize many of the advantages of intrinsic disorder. In fact, viral proteins are generally rich in intrinsic
disorder, and intrinsically disordered regions are commonly used by viruses to invade the host organisms, to hijack various
host systems, and to help viruses in accommodation to their hostile habitats and to manage their economic usage of genetic
material. In this review, we focus on the structural peculiarities of HIV-1 proteins, on the abundance of intrinsic disorder
in viral proteins, and on the role of intrinsic disorder in their functions. 相似文献

Intrinsic disorder (i.e., lack of a unique 3-D structure) is a common phenomenon, and many biologically active proteins are disordered as a whole, or contain long disordered regions. These intrinsically disordered proteins/regions constitute a significant part of all proteomes, and their functional repertoire is complementary to functions of ordered proteins. In fact, intrinsic disorder represents an important driving force for many specific functions. An illustrative example of such disorder-centric functional class is RNA-binding proteins. In this study, we present the results of comprehensive bioinformatics analyses of the abundance and roles of intrinsic disorder in 3,411 ribosomal proteins from 32 species. We show that many ribosomal proteins are intrinsically disordered or hybrid proteins that contain ordered and disordered domains. Predicted globular domains of many ribosomal proteins contain noticeable regions of intrinsic disorder. We also show that disorder in ribosomal proteins has different characteristics compared to other proteins that interact with RNA and DNA including overall abundance, evolutionary conservation, and involvement in protein–protein interactions. Furthermore, intrinsic disorder is not only abundant in the ribosomal proteins, but we demonstrate that it is absolutely necessary for their various functions. 相似文献
