From: ATF3, an HTLV-1 bZip factor binding protein, promotes proliferation of adult T-cell leukemia cells
Domains of ATF3 and sHBZ responsible for their interaction. (A) Determination of the region of ATF3 responsible for the interaction with HBZ. 293FT cells were transfected with a FLAG-ATF3 mutant lacking the zipper domain along with sHBZ-Myc-His. 48 hours after transfection, total cell lysates were subjected to IP using anti-FLAG followed by IB using anti-His. (B) The region of HBZ responsible for interaction with ATF3. 293FT cells were transfected with the indicated tagged-HBZ mutants along with the FLAG-ATF3 vector. Cell lysates were subjected to IP using anti-Myc followed by IB using anti-FLAG. Schematic diagrams of ATF3 (A) and HBZ (B) are shown. AD, activation domain; RD, repression domain; LZ, leucine zipper; CD, central domain; WT, wild type. Asterisk (* or **) shows the region responsible for the molecular interaction.
