Fuzzy regions in an intrinsically disordered protein impair protein–protein interactions

Abstract: Despite the partial disorder-to-order transition that intrinsically disordered proteins often undergo upon binding to their partners, a considerable amount of residual disorder may be retained in the bound form, resulting in a fuzzy complex. Fuzzy regions flanking molecular recognition elements may enable partner fishing through non-specific, transient contacts, thereby facilitating binding, but may also disfavor binding through various mechanisms. So far, few computational or experimental studies have address… Show more

“…The rationale for setting these Dt boundaries was that 0.5 is the IUPred threshold above which a sequence is considered as disordered and 1.0 is the highest IUPred disorder score [12]. IUPred was chosen because we had already successfully used it to analyze the artificial N TAIL sequence designed and experimentally characterized in our previous study [11] and because it could be run in local mode on our server. However, this choice does not exclude that other programs or meta-programs could have been used.…”

“…A BLAST search in the non-redundant protein sequence database retrieved no sequence. To functionally test 100-0.6, we used the measles N TAIL -XD interacting system already used in our previous work [11]. To that end, 100-0.6 was appended to the N -terminal end of N TAIL MoRE to yield a sequence referred to as 100-0.6-MoRE.…”
