Expression of wild-type Vav2 and its mutants. (A)
Structural domains of Vav2 are schematically illustrated at the top,
and wild-type Vav2 cDNA and six Vav2 mutants are represented by thick
lines below. Numbers indicate amino acid residues of the N and C
termini of each domain. LR, leucine-rich domain; AD, acid-rich domain;
CR, cystein-rich domain; SH3, src homology-3; ×,
positions of point mutations with amino acid numbers. (B) Various
pCIneo-myc plasmids encoding wild-type Vav2 and each Vav2
mutant were transiently transfected into COS-7 cells. At 48 h
after transfection, the cell lysates were prepared from each
transfected cell and subjected to immunoblotting with
the anti-Myc mAb.
