We demonstrate here the rational design of purely entropic domains as a versatile approach to achieve control input/output response synthetic molecular receptors. To do so and highlight versatility generality this approach, we have rationally re-engineered two model DNA-based receptors: clamp-like switch that recognizes specific DNA sequence an ATP-binding aptamer. show that, by varying length linker domain connects recognition portions these receptors, it is possible finely their affinity for ligand. Through mathematical modeling thermodynamic characterization, also both systems entropy changes associated with in are responsible modulation designed behaves disordered random-coil polymer. The allows us regulate ligand concentration range at which receptors respond optimal specificity. Given attributes, use appears general activity highly predictable controlled fashion.

In the 1960s, Christian Anfinsen postulated that unique three-dimensional structure of a protein is determined by its amino acid sequence. This work laid foundation for sequence–structure–function paradigm, which states sequence determines structure, and function. However, class polypeptide segments called intrinsically disordered regions does not conform to this postulate. review, I will first describe established emerging ideas about how contribute then discuss molecular principles regulatory mechanisms, such as alternative splicing asymmetric localization transcripts encode regions, can increase functional versatility proteins.

Many proteins and protein segments cannot attain a single stable three-dimensional structure under physiological conditions; instead, they adopt multiple interconverting conformational states. Such intrinsically disordered or are highly abundant across proteomes, involved in various effector functions.
