A five-residue motif for the design of domain swapping in proteins

Designing interfaces that can induce protein-protein interactions is a challenging problem. Here the authors show that a five amino acid sequence known to mediate domain swapping in cystatins can drive oligomerization when grafted onto functionally and structurally unrelated host proteins, providing...
