Chemical shift mapping of the interaction between ASPP2-CT and iASPP-CT
and the p53 linker peptide. A and D, superposition of
the 1H-15N TROSY-HSQC spectra of
U-15N,2H-labeled ASPP2-CT (A) and
15N,2H-labeled iASPP-CT (D) in the absence
(black) and presence (red) of unlabeled p53-L. A selected
region is expanded in each spectrum, and individual resonances along the
titration are shown in the inset (increasing amounts of p53-L are
shown with the colors black → green →
yellow → blue → burgundy →
cyan → red). B and E, magnitude of
the chemical shift changes versus residue number for ASPP2-CT and
iASPP, respectively. Domain boundaries for ASPP2-CT and iASPP-CT are indicated
below the residue numbers. Structural mapping of the p53
binding site on ASPP2-CT and iASPP-CT is provided in the insets. The
insets show the crystal structures of ASPP2-CT and iASPP-CT (Protein
Data Bank codes 1YCS and 2VGE), where residues are colored according
to the magnitude of their associated chemical shift changes: red,
Δδ > (Δδaverage + 2 × S.D.);
orange,(Δδaverage + 2 × S.D.)
>Δδ > (Δδaverage + 1 × S.D.).
C and F, titration curves for selected ASPP2-CT and iASPP-CT
1HN resonances, respectively.
