THIRD LRR DOMAIN OF HUMAN SLIT2
|
OverviewOverview
Slit2 and Roundabout 1 (Robo1) provide a key ligand-receptor interaction, for the navigation of commissural neurons during the development of the, central nervous system. Slit2 is a large multidomain protein containing an, unusual domain organization of four tandem leucine-rich repeat (LRR), domains at its N-terminus. These domains are well known to mediate, protein-protein interactions; indeed, the Robo1-binding region has been, mapped to the concave face of the second LRR domain. It has also been, shown that the fourth LRR domain may mediate Slit dimerization and that, both the first and second domains can bind heparin. Thus, while roles have, been ascribed for three of the LRR domains, there is still no known role, for the third domain. Each of the four LRR domains from human Slit2 ... [(full description)]
