Abstract excerpt
ALG-2 is an EF-hand-type Ca(2+)-binding protein that interacts with a variety of intracellular proteins that possess Pro-rich regions (PRRs) in mammalian cells. IST1 is an endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT)-III-related charged multivesicular body protein (CHMP)-like protein, but unlike other ESCRT-III proteins, mammalian IST1 has a PRR and a distinctive sequence of Met-Pro repeats. We found...
