There actually aren't. However, some of the most interesting proteins have no structure at all.

    The interesting part would be to a reliable and computationally accessible way to handle disordered proteins. Seeing how they can move could be quite revolutionary.

    I had to work on some disordered proteins and you're pretty much just guessing, plausibly you're better off going to a casino blindfolded and play blackjack.
