Bundling big science tools to shed light on flexible proteins
(PHYSorg.com Chemistry)

Nearly a dozen scientists across Oak Ridge National Laboratory are teaming with medical researchers and leveraging ORNL`s biggest science tools to solve a modern-day biology grand challenge: unlocking the secrets of disordered proteins. These flexible molecules are believed to constitute as much as half of the proteins in the human body yet are poorly understood because we have not found a way to adequately study their properties.
