Abstract: The extraordinary flexibility and structural heterogeneity of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDP) make them functionally versatile molecules. We have now begun to better understand their fundamental role in biology, however many aspects of their behaviour remain difficult to grasp experimentally. This is especially true for the intermolecular interactions which lead to the formation of transient or highly dynamic supramolecular self-assemblies, such as oligomers, aggregation intermediates and biomolecular condensates. Both the emerging func...
