Intrinsically disordered proteins can bind via the formation of highly disordered protein complexes without the formation of three-dimensional structure. Most naturally occurring proteins are levorotatory (L)-that is, made up only of L-amino acids-imprinting molecular structure and communication with stereochemistry. By contrast, their mirror-image dextrorotatory (D)-amino acids are rare in nature.
