7th Pusan Workshop on Proteome Biophysics & 1st Asia-Pacific IUP Symposium
Thermodynamics, Folding Kinetics, and Biological Function of Structured Proteins and Intrinsically Unfolded Proteins
Over the last decade a considerable progress was made not only for understanding the fundamental thermodynamics and folding kinetics of structured proteins, but also for the structure-biological function relationship of intrinsically unfolded proteins (IUPs). Therefore it is highly timely for us to discuss the biophysical role of both structured proteins and intrinsically unfolded proteins on the equal footing. You are cordially invited to participate in the active discussion on the current status and future prospect of these proteins in the context of their bio-informatics, thermodynamics, folding kinetics, and biological function.
