Abstract
Transcription factors (TFs) bind only a subset of their motif-containing promoters. Brodsky and Jana et al. find that promoter selection is dictated by multiple specificity determinants distributed across long intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) encoded within the TF sequence. IDR-guided specificity may accelerate binding-site recognition by an initial detection of broad DNA regions.
