Many intrinsically disordered proteins (IDP) that fold upon binding retain conformational heterogeneity in IDP-target complexes. The thermodynamics of such fuzzy interactions is poorly understood. Herein we introduce a thermodynamic framework, based ...
Nucleic acids exhibit a repertoire of conformational preference depending on the sequence and environment. Circular dichroism (CD) is an essential and valuable tool for monitoring such secondary structural conformations of nucleic acids. Nonetheless,...

We present a web server that predicts the far-UV circular dichroism (CD) spectra of proteins by utilizing their three-dimensional (3D) structures from the Protein Data Bank (PDB). The main algorithm is based on the classical theory of optical activit...
Amino acid identification is crucial across various scientific disciplines, including biochemistry, pharmaceutical research, and medical diagnostics. However, traditional methods such as mass spectrometry require extensive sample preparation and are ...
