Proteins with amino acid homorepeats have the potential to be detrimental to cells and are often associated with human diseases. Why then are homorepeats prevalent in eukaryotic proteomes? In yeast, we find that homorepeats are enriched in proteins that are essential, pleiotropic and buffer environmental insults. Their presence increases functional versatility of proteins by mediating protein interactions and facilitating spatial organization in a repeat-dependent manner. During evolution, homorepeats are preferentially retained in proteins with stringent proteostasis, which might minimize repeat-associated detrimental effects such as unregulated phase separation and protein aggregation. Their presence facilitates rapid protein divergence through accumulation of amino acid substitutions, which often affect linear motifs and post-translational modification sites. This may result in rewiring protein interaction and signalling networks. Thus, homorepeats are distinct modules that are often retained in stringently regulated proteins. Their presence facilitates rapid exploration of the genotype-phenotype landscape of a population, thereby contributing to fitness.
