THE STRUCTURE OF THE BEM1P PX DOMAIN
Overview
Phox homology (PX) domains, which have been identified in a variety of, proteins involved in cell signaling and membrane trafficking, have been, shown to interact with phosphoinositides (PIs) with different affinities, and specificities. To elucidate the structural origin of diverse PI, specificity of PX domains, we determined the crystal structure of the PX, domain from Bem1p, which has been reported to bind, phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PtdIns4P). We also measured the membrane, binding properties of the PX domain and its mutants by surface plasmon, resonance and monolayer techniques and calculated the electrostatic, potentials for the PX domain in the absence and presence of bound, PtdIns4P. The Bem1p PX domain contains a signature PI-binding site, optimized for PtdIns4P binding ... [(full description)]
