Abstract:
Modified ubiquitin sequences, each completed with a His tag and a TEV cleavage site, were designed to enhance the expression of protein/peptide targets. With this new system we have been able to characterize several peptide-protein interactions by ITC and by NMR and CD spectroscopic methods, including the interactions of LIR domains with autophagy modifiers.
