This text offers the first systematic compilation of various techniques and methodologies used in the analysis of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs). Its coverage addresses one of the hottest yet least documented areas in protein biophysics today, summarizing recent achievements in the methods for structural characterization of intrinsically disordered proteins. The text also addresses structural biology and protein degradation, along with a myriad of spectroscopic techniques that can be used to elucidate protein structure: NMR and EPR spectroscopies, FTIR, circular dichroism, fluorescence spectroscopy, vibrational methods, and single-molecule analysis.
