Abstract excerpt
The avid binding of HIV-1 Nef to the Src homology-3 (SH3) domain of Hck (KD 250 nM) has been shown to involve an interaction between the RT-loop of Hck-SH3 and residues in Nef outside of its prototypic polyproline type II (PPII) helix-containing SH3-ligand region. Such distinctive interactions are thought to provide specificity and affinity for other SH3/ligand protein complexes as well. Here, we have constructed...
