| abstractText | We recently cloned a cDNA encoding a novel extracellular signal-regulated kinase 2 (ERK2) binding protein, EBITEIN1, by yeast two-hybrid screening. In this study, we further characterized EBITEIN1. Binding experiments using various deletion mutants identified a 40-amino acid minimal sequence for binding ERK2. Binding experiments using substitution mutants indicated the crucial role of arginine residues in this sequence. Based on empirical and bioinformatic analyses, we propose two domains in EBITEIN1. One is the minimal sequence for binding ERK2 (EB domain) and the other is the EBITEIN1 C-terminal domain (ECT domain). These results might pave the way for further empirical and bioinformatic analyses of EBITEIN1- and ERK2-mediated events. |
