A disorder-induced domino-like destabilization mechanism governs the folding and functional dynamics of the repeat protein IκBα.

The stability of the repeat protein IκBα, a transcriptional inhibitor in mammalian cells, is critical in the functioning of the NF-κB signaling module implicated in an array of cellular processes, including cell growth, disease, immunity and apoptosis. Structurally, IκBα is complex, with both ordere...
