Abstract excerpt
The fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (flg) contains eight acidic amino acids between the first and second immunoglobulin domain. This report examines the role of the acidic domain in the interaction of the flg receptor with its ligands. We observed a marked inhibition of binding of bFGF to the receptor when the acidic domain was completely deleted, but mutants with two and four amino acids deleted (flg delta...
