Abstract:	“Moonlighting” means doing a second job, often at night, to earn more money. So-called moonlighting proteins are proteins that play other, generally unusual and unexpected, roles in addition to their canonical roles. They have been described in a wide range of organisms from bacteria to mammals, and their additional functions vary greatly (reviewed in Collingridge et al., 2010; Huberts and van der Klei, 2010; Henderson and Martin, 2011).
