Abstract
The cellular environment is critical to protein function. How is information from many cellular components decoded in order to fine-tune biological activity? New models of biomolecular recognition raise the possibility that proteins engage in specific, yet fuzzy, interactions with their functional partners, which can provide a readout mechanism of the cellular context. Manipulating the cellular context to control protein function offers new therapeutic opportunities. In this Comment article, Monika Fuxreiter discusses possible roles of dynamic, fuzzy protein interactions and their importance in changing cellular environments.
