Direct binding of plectin to Fer kinase and negative regulation of its catalytic activity.

Abstract excerpt

Plectin is a cyoskeletal linker protein that protects tissues against mechanical stress. We report here that the N-terminal domain of the nonreceptor tyrosine kinase Fer interacts with N-terminal sequences of plectin. Recombinant protein encoded by exon 12-24 of rat plectin bound directly to amino acid 1-329 of murine Fer. Using an antiserum prepared to a recombinant N-terminal fragment of Fer kinase, plectin was...
