Abstract excerpt
Although the alpha-helical Y(X)4Lvarphi containing region of eIF4E-binding protein (4EBP) is the major binding region with eukaryotic initiation factor 4E (eIF4E), the roles of its N- and C-terminal regions in the binding are hardly known. To clarify the roles of these flexible regions in the interaction, the binding features of the sequentially N-, C-, or both-terminal-residue-deleted 4EBP2 mutants were...
