Stability, homodimerization, and calcium-binding properties of a single, variant betagamma-crystallin domain of the protein absent in melanoma 1 (AIM1).

Abstract excerpt

AIM1 (absent in melanoma), a candidate suppressor of malignancy in melanoma, is a nonlens member of the betagamma-crystallin superfamily, which contains six predicted betagamma domains. The first betagamma-crystallin domain of AIM1 (AIM1-g1) diverges most in sequence from the superfamily consensus. To examine its ability to fold and behave like a normal betagamma domain, we cloned AIM1-g1 and overexpressed it in...
