Reading protein modifications with interaction domains

Proteins are controlled by a vast and dynamic array of post-translational modifications, many of which create binding sites for specific protein-interaction domains. We propose that these domains, working together, read the state of the proteome and therefore couple post-translational modifications...

Summary:Proteins are controlled by a vast and dynamic array of post-translational modifications, many of which create binding sites for specific protein-interaction domains. We propose that these domains, working together, read the state of the proteome and therefore couple post-translational modifications to cellular organization. We also identify common strategies through which modification-dependent interactions synergize to regulate cell behaviour.
