Developing a Contextual Annotation Framework for Short Linear Motifs in Proteins

Identifying and validating short linear motifs (SLiMs) is challenging due to their low sequence complexity and high prevalence across the proteome. Many false positives—sequences that match the pattern of the SLiM but are not involved in the biological functions typically associated with SLiMs—compl...
