Type: Specificity Subtype: Competition | |||||||
Competitive binding of multiple binding partners to overlapping or adjacent, mutually exclusive interaction interfaces depends on local target protein abundance, which can be regulated by changing the expression level or subcellular localisation of the competitors, or by scaffolding. | |||||||
ITB7_HUMAN | LIG_Talin | 770 | 779 | The integrin regulator Talin-1 (TLN1) and the actin-crosslinking Filamins Filamin-A (FLNA) use overlapping binding sites on the cytoplasmic tails of beta integrin subunits Integrin beta-7 (ITGB7), which makes their interaction with beta integrin mutually exclusive. | |||
ITB7_HUMAN | LIG_Filamin | 776 | 787 | The integrin regulator Talin-1 (TLN1) and the actin-crosslinking Filamins Filamin-A (FLNA) use overlapping binding sites on the cytoplasmic tails of beta integrin subunits Integrin beta-7 (ITGB7), which makes their interaction with beta integrin mutually exclusive. | |||
Type: Binary Subtype: Physicochemical compatibility | |||||||
PTM of a residue in a motif or in its flanking regions alters the physicochemical and/or structural compatibility of the motif with its binding partner. This can either induce or enhance an interaction, or result in inhibition or even abrogation of an interaction. | |||||||
PI51C_HUMAN | LIG_PTB_Talin | 650 | 653 | Phosphorylation of S650 in the PTB-binding motif of Phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinase type-1 gamma (PIP5K1C) blocks its interaction with Talin-1 (TLN1). Phosphorylation of Y649 by Src kinase enhances the interaction, possibly indirectly by inhibiting S650 phosphorylation. | |||
Type: Binary Subtype: Pre‑translational | |||||||
Pre-translational mechanisms such as alternative splicing, alternative promoter-usage and/or RNA editing result in inclusion or removal of exons that contain an entire or partial motif. | |||||||
ITB1_HUMAN | LIG_Talin | 775 | 785 | Alternative splicing alters the flanking regions of the PTB-binding motif of Isoform Beta-1D of Integrin beta-1 (ITGB1), inducing higher affinity binding to Talin-1 (TLN1). Alteration of residue 788 from G to Q and alteration of residue 786 from A to P increases the binding affinity from 491 micromolar in the canonical Isoform Beta-1A of Integrin beta-1 (ITGB1) to 95 micromolar in Isoform Beta-1D of Integrin beta-1 (ITGB1). | |||
Type: Specificity Subtype: Altered binding specificity | |||||||
The balance of the competition for overlapping or adjacent, mutually exclusive interaction interfaces is tipped in favor of one of the interactors by PTM-dependent modulation of the intrinsic affinity of a binding region. Multiple, successive PTMs allow sequential switching of different binding partners in an ordered manner by step-wise alteration of binding specificity. | |||||||
ITB3_HUMAN | LIG_PTB_Apo_2 | 767 | 774 | Phosphorylation of Y773 in Integrin beta-3 (ITGB3) switches the specificity of ITGB3 from Talin-1 (TLN1) to Docking protein 1 (DOK1), with a 2-fold decrease of the affinity for TLN1 and close to a 400-fold increase of the affinity for DOK1. This switch results in negative regulation of integrin activation. |
