1SAA Protein aggregation driven by dynamic solution environments

Wed. Sep 28, 2022 9:00 AM - 11:30 AM Room A (Hakodate Arena Budokan A)

Organizers:Norio Yoshida(Kyusyu Univ.),Kenji Sugase(Kyoto Univ.)

In cells, the solution environment is constantly changing due to varying concentrations of chemicals, mechanical stimuli, and electric fields. In recent years, it has become evident that intrinsically disordered proteins, which do not have specific conformations, undergo liquid-liquid phase separation and amyloid fibrillization in response to the ‘dynamic’ solution environment. This series of self-condensation processes is controlled by the protein-protein and protein-solvent interactions of intrinsically disordered proteins, which have dynamic conformations and solvation states. In this workshop, we will discuss the latest research on the self-condensation process of intrinsically disordered proteins and their future development.
