<P>The existence and functioning of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) challenge the classical structure-function paradigm that equates function with a well-defined 3D structure. Uncovering the disordered complement of proteomes and understanding their functioning can extend the structure-func

โฆ Synopsis
"The book is just superb- a thorough, comprehensive and lucid discussion of intrinsically disordered proteins" --Joel L. Sussman, Weizmann Institute of Science
"Tompa's masterly compendium on Intrinsically Disordered Proteins arrives at just the right time to fill a conspicuous void on this important topic. His eminently readable book is broad enough to educate beginners but deep enough to inform experts." -George Rose, Ph.D., Johns Hopkins University

The compact myelin sheath formed around nerve axons speeds up nerve conduction and also nurtures the axon. Destruction of this sheath in demyelinating diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS) results in nerve conduction failure and neurodegeneration. Myelin basic protein (MBP) is the second most abu
