List of experimental and computational labs focusing on IDPs

List of experimental and computational labs focusing on IDPs. In the last ten years, a great number of laboratories have investigated protein disorders using both experimental (e.g. SAXS-NMR, single-molecule fluorescence) and computational (analysis of protein structure) techniques.

• Keith Dunker coined the term IDP, recognised IDPs as distinct class of proteins with important biological functions, established many prediction algorithms to characterise IDPs in thousands of proteomes.^[1][2]
• Peter Tompa contributed early studies of oversized IDPs and disordered plant chaperones.^[3][4]
• Vladimir Uversky is a pioneer in theoretical and experimental biophysics of IDPs.^[5][6]

• Jane Dyson is a pioneer in NMR studies on various biologically important IDPs.^[28][29]
• Rohit Pappu pioneered modelling of electrostatic malleability of IDP ensembles.^[30][31] and developed powerful modeling tools to predict ensembles of highly charged IDPs based on their charge distributions.^[32]

• Madelon Maurice is a pioneer in cellular mechanisms of IDP scaffolds in Wnt signalling.^{[35][36][37][38]}

• Ashok Deniz pioneered single-molecule fluorescence studies on IDPs.^[43][44]
• David Klenerman pioneered single-molecule fluorescence studies on IDPs.^[45][46]
• Vincent Hilser extended the theory of allostery and demonstrated that IDPs have an ensemble allosteric advantage.^[47]
