Binding of Vac14 to neuronal nitric oxide synthase: Characterisation of a new internal PDZ‐recognition motif

Abstract: PDZ domains mediate protein interactions primarily through either classical recognition of carboxyl-terminal motifs or PDZ/PDZ domain associations. Several studies have also described internal modes of PDZ recognition, most of which depend on b-finger structures. Here, we describe a novel interaction between the PDZ domain of nNOS and Vac14, the activator of the PtdIns(3)P 5-kinase PIKfyve. Binding assays using various Vac14 deletion constructs revealed a b-finger independent interaction that is based on a nov… Show more

“…No similar sequence is present at the C termini of the beta HPV E6s (Fig. 1A), but the range of sequences that bind to PDZ proteins is in fact much broader than had previously been appreciated (64), and there are four or more rather degenerate C-terminal PDZ binding sequences as well as internal PDZ binding sequences (39). It is also possible that the interaction between beta E6s and these PDZ domain proteins is not mediated by a classical C-terminal interaction but rather by binding via a protein intermediate or by binding to another sequence in the PDZ protein.…”

“…Alternatively, PI(3,5)P 2 may play a critical role in an as yet unidentified neuronal-specific endosomally derived organelle. Indeed, during subcellular fractionation of rat brain, Vac14 was enriched in microsomal membranes from synapses (41).…”

“…Interactions with other members of the PIKfyve protein complex may also be important for activation of PIKfyve at synapses. For example, Vac14 has a motif that interacts with PDZ domains (82), which are highly abundant protein interaction domains found in many scaffolding proteins in the postsynaptic density.…”
