Molecular interaction of tumor suppressor protein p53 and anti-apoptotic proteins Bcl-2 and Bcl-XL. by Yoon, Ho Sup.

“…Second, to define the binding interface of the molecular interaction, which is not previously characterized, we employed a NMR-based binding study, showing that the binding site on Bel-XL is located in the region including a4, the N- and C-termini of a3, the N-terminus of a5, and the central part of a2. To further probe this observation, we then performed fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) assay in cells. …”
