Design and development of histone deacetylase (HDAC) chemical probes for cell-based profiling.

abstract：:Proteins are dynamic creatures. Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) function as multiplicity of structures and their activities can only be described by stochastic structure-function relationships. In their complex forms, however, IDPs were thought to lose their plasticity and behave similarly to globular protein...
