Control of function of a small peptide by a protein

A peptide that functions only in the presence of a protein has been developed using reaction-based selection from peptide phage libraries. The peptide was not functional in the absence of the protein, but formed enaminones with 1,3-diketone derivatives when bound to the protein.
