Abstract excerpt
Upon activation, Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) binds adapter proteins, including MyD88 (myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88) and Mal (MyD88 adapter-like) for its signal transduction. TLR4 and the adapter proteins each contain a Toll/Il-1 receptor domain (TIR domain). In this study we used random mutagenesis and the mammalian two-hybrid method MAPPIT (mammalian protein-protein interaction trap) to...
