Many protein-protein interactions are mediated by peptide recognition modules (PRMs), compact domains that bind to short peptides, and play a critical role in a wide array of biological processes. Recent experimental protein interaction data provide us with an opportunity to examine whether we may explain, or even predict their interactions by computational sequence analysis. Such a question was recently posed by the use of random peptide screens to characterize the ligands of one such PRM, the SH3 domain.
