Abstract excerpt
We identified the interaction between HBV X (HBx) protein and the oncogene AIB1 (amplified in breast cancer 1). A serine/proline motif (SSPSPS) in HBx was found to be required for the interaction. Two LXD motifs [LLXX(X)L, X means any amino acids], LLRNSL and LLDQLHTLL in AIB1 were also found to be involved in the HBx-AIB1 interaction. The HBx-AIB1 interaction was important for the activation of NFκB signal...
