The ‘Shape-Shifter’ Peptide from the Disulphide Isomerase PmScsC Shows Context-Dependent Conformational Preferences

Multiple crystal structures of the homo-trimeric protein disulphide isomerase PmScsC reveal that the peptide which links the trimerization stalk and catalytic domain can adopt helical, β-strand and loop conformations. This region has been called a ‘shape-shifter’ peptide. Characterisation of this pe...
