Binding sites involved in the interaction of actin with the N-terminal region of dystrophin.

Two actin-binding sites have been identified on human dystrophin by proton NMR spectroscopy of synthetic peptides corresponding to defined regions of the polypeptide sequence. These are Actin-Binding Site 1 (ABS1) located at residues 17-26 and Actin-Binding Site 2 (ABS2) in the region of residues 128-156. Using defined fragments of the ...
actin amino acid sequence, ABS1 has been shown to bind to actin in the region represented by residues 83-117 and ABS2 to the C-terminal region represented by residues 350-375. These dystrophin-binding sites lie on the exposed domain in the actin filament.
