Abstract excerpt
Most benign brain tumors are associated with loss of the Nf2 gene tumor suppressor product schwannomin/merlin. Interactions between schwannomin fragments have given rise to hypotheses of in vivo schwannomin folding and dimerization. Previously, we showed that schwannomin with missense mutations L360P, L535P, and Q538P alters interaction with betaII-spectrin and Hrs. Using yeast two-hybrid tests of interaction, we...
