FRAGMENT FROM NATURE illustrates how molecular promiscuity in disordered regions of proteins yield unexpected plasticity and desirable traits, but also a susceptibility for diseases. We usually think of the genome as highly ordered, but protein products of genes can show considerable disorder, or viewed alternatively, structural flexibility that is less geometrically or electronically constrained. These present opportunities as well as potential problems.
