Predicting binding within disordered protein regions to structurally characterised peptide-binding domains.

Disordered regions of proteins often bind to structured domains, mediating interactions within and between proteins. However, it is difficult to identify a priori the short disordered regions involved in binding. We set out to determine if docking such peptide regions to peptide binding domains woul...
