Structural disorder promotes assembly of protein complexes.

Although in the latter set there might be significant disorder-to-order transition known to occur when a protein binds to its partner(s), still there is a linear relationship between the observed disorder (calculated as the average disorder of the PDB homologues of the complex components for each complex and the predicted one (additional file 2 ), which shows the relevance of disorder thus extracted from PDB.
