Removal of the 5′ cap structure is a critical step in mRNA turnover, yet key questions regarding the assembly and regulation of decapping complexes remain unanswered. This review provides comprehensive insight into the structural and biochemical properties of decapping factors. Jonas and Izaurralde highlight the plasticity of the decapping network and cover recent advances that reveal how short linear motifs (SliMs) in disordered regions help maintain interactions between decapping network members.
