Figure 1. Examples of site‐specific interactions and their combination in MVPs.
(A–E) Cartoon diagrams of various protein domains and proteins discussed in the text (yellow), with their cognate ligands shown in stick. (A) Src homology 3 (SH3) domain with proline‐rich motif (PRM); (B) Src homology 2 domain with tyrosine‐phosphorylated peptide; (C) Tudor domain with peptide from histone H3 trimethylated on lysine 36; (D) Importin‐β with Gly‐Leu‐Gly‐Phe (GLGF) peptide; (E) Enlargement of area boxed in D. The protein data bank (PDB) codes are indicated; (F) Domain organization of the NCK and N‐WASP proteins, and sequence of the proline‐rich region of N‐WASP (Uniprot, human sequence); and (G) Artificial multivalent constructs used by Li et al (2012).
