Novel peptide-mediated interactions derived from high-resolution 3-dimensional structures.

Many biological responses to intra- and extracellular stimuli are regulated through complex networks of transient protein interactions where a globular domain in one protein recognizes a linear peptide from another, creating a relatively small contact interface. These peptide stretches are often fou...
