Heterooligomeric interactions with peptide VNVV. Purified SN
chimeras L23, VNVV, L7HL15,
L7QL15, L7EL15, and
L7DL15 were mixed with peptide VNVV at a
peptide/chimera ratio of about 1:5. Samples were tested for
heterooligomeric interactions in SDS/PAGE. Positions of monomers,
homodimers, and homotrimers of chimeras and heterodimers and
heterotrimers (1 and 2) of chimera and peptide are marked on the right.
(A) The chimeras without peptide VNVV.
(B) The chimeras after the addition of the peptide.
