Role of non-native electrostatic interactions in the coupled folding and binding of PUMA with Mcl-1.
PUMA, which belongs to the BH3-only protein family, is an intrinsically disordered protein (IDP). It binds to its cellular partner Mcl-1 through its BH3 motif, which folds upon binding into an α helix. We have applied a structure-based coarse-grained model, with an explicit Debye-Hückel charge model...
