Analysis of Signaling Interactions • Examined each interaction on Pawson’s website. • Almost all of the interactions involved ordered regions binding to disordered partners. • Conclusion: if Pawson’s examples are typical, then a very significant proportion of protein-protein signaling interactions use disordered regions.

Alternative Splicing and Intrinsic Disorder • Find proteins with both ordered and disordered regions. • Find mRNA alternative splicing information for these proteins and map to the ordered and disordered regions. • For alternatively spliced regions of mRNA, do they code for ordered protein more often or do they code for disordered protein more often?

Alternative Splicing and Disorder • Ordered Proteins: active site residues non-local in sequence, become associated by protein folding • Disordered Proteins and regions: functional residues localized in squence • Functional regions for signaling and regulation are located one after another • Alternative splicing edits functional sets and thereby leads to regulatory and signaling diversity
Summary • Protein signaling interactions involve intrinsic disorder (ID) a high percentage of the time. • Alternative splicing (AS) often occurs in regions of pre-mRNA that code for intrinsic disorder. • AS + ID facilitate regulatory and signaling diversity. • Is AS + ID the critical combination for the evolution of multi-cellular organisms?
