This chapter reviews the main strategies developed for the design of ligands for these families, including peptides, peptidomimetics and drugs. We also describe some studies aimed to understand the molecular reasons responsible for the intrinsic affinity and specificity of these domains.}, publisher = {Elsevier Inc.}, keywords = {EVH1 domains; GYF domains}, keywords = {Ligand design}, keywords = {Polyproline peptides}, keywords = {Protein-protein interactions}, keywords = {SH3 domains}, keywords = {Structure/function relationships in protein domains}, keywords = {UEV domains; WW domains}, title = {Understanding binding affinity and specificity of modular protein domains: A focus in ligand design for the polyproline-binding families}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1016/BS.APCSB.2021.12.002}, author = {Martínez Herrerías, José Cristóbal and Castillo, Francisco and Ruiz Sanz, Javier and Murciano Calles, Javier and Cámara-Artigas, Ana and Luque Fernández, Irene}, }
