Inhibition of hGrb10 Binding to the Insulin Receptor by Functional Domain-mediated Oligomerization

Inhibition of hGrb10 binding to the insulin receptor by functional domain-mediated oligomerization.

hGrb10 is a newly identified Src homology 2 (SH2) and pleckstrin homology (PH) domain-containing protein that binds to autophosphorylated receptor tyrosine kinases, including the insulin and insulin-like growth factor receptors. To identify potential downstream proteins that interact with hGrb10, we screened a yeast two-hybrid cDNA library using the full-length hGrb10gamma as bait. A fragment o...

Nucleotide-Binding Oligomerization Domain

Inhibition of receptor-mediated endocytosis by the amphiphysin SH3 domain

BACKGROUND Receptor-mediated endocytosis appears to require the GTP-binding protein dynamin, but the process by which dynamin is recruited to clathrin-coated pits remains unclear. Dynamin contains several proline-rich clusters that bind to Src homology 3 (SH3) domains, which are short modules found in many signalling proteins and which mediate protein-protein interactions. Amphiphysin, a protei...

Hsp70 Oligomerization Is Mediated by an Interaction between the Interdomain Linker and the Substrate-Binding Domain

Oligomerization in the heat shock protein (Hsp) 70 family has been extensively documented both in vitro and in vivo, although the mechanism, the identity of the specific protein regions involved and the physiological relevance of this process are still unclear. We have studied the oligomeric properties of a series of human Hsp70 variants by means of nanoelectrospray ionization mass spectrometry...
