Abstract excerpt
In this issue of the Biochemical Journal, Xu et al. describe how they use a spot peptide array to identify a unique sequence within beta-arrestin-2 that is required for both multimerization and ERK1/2 (extracellular-signal-related kinase 1/2) scaffolding. They provide evidence that dimers may serve as more than just 'storage forms' of beta-arrestins, incapable of interacting with receptors but, rather, perhaps,...
