Abstract
Disordered states of proteins include (i) the unfolded states of folded proteins and (ii) the biologically functional intrinsically disordered proteins. Due to the highly dynamic and conformationally heterogeneous nature of disordered states, traditional methods for structural characterization are not directly applicable. Nevertheless, recent years have brought major advances in the experimental characterization of disordered states. In particular, multidimensional NMR methods have proven extremely valuable for improving our understanding of these highly flexible systems. Extensive experimental evidence now supports the idea that disordered states under non-denaturing or mildly denaturing conditions have interesting structural properties that deviate substantially from the random coil-like behavior observed for chemically denatured proteins. In this chapter, we review various experimental techniques for characterizing non-random secondary and tertiary structure in disordered states of proteins. In addition, we discuss recent attempts at combining experimental measurements with computational methods in order to build detailed atomic-level models of various unfolded and intrinsically disordered proteins.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
