Figure 7. Potential FERM Domain Interaction SitesThe positions of five binding sites on proteins that are structurally similar to the three FERM lobes are indicated: (1) by analogy with the protein interaction site seen for elongin B ([62]) and the Ras binding domain of Raf kinase ( [47]); (2) by analogy with the lipid binding site of the acyl CoA binding protein ( [36]), but this site is blocked by the loop connecting the F2 helices C and D; (3) by analogy with the proline-containing peptide binding site on EVH1 domains ( [53]; Federov et al., 1999); (4) by analogy with the canonical peptide binding site of PTB domains ( [74]); and (5) by analogy with the inositol phosphate binding sites on PH domains ( [13 and 31]).
