PDZ domain 2 of human Ligand of Numb protein X 1 (LNX1) and LNX2, and related domains
PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain 2 of LNX1 (also known as PDZ domain-containing RING finger protein 2, PDZRN2) and LNX2 (also known as PDZ domain-containing RING finger protein 1, PDZRN1), and related domains. LNX1 and LNX2 are Ring (Really Interesting New Gene) finger and PDZ domain-containing E3 ubiquitin ligases that bind to the cell fate determinant protein NUMB and mediate its ubiquitination. LNX1 can ubiquitinate a number of other ligands including PPFIA1, KLHL11, KIF7 and ERC2. LNX1 and LNX2 each have four PDZ domains. PDZ domains usually bind in a sequence-specific manner to short peptide sequences located at the C-terminal end of their partner proteins (known as PDZ binding motifs). The PDZ superfamily includes canonical PDZ domains as well as those with circular permutations and domain swapping mediated by beta-strands. This LNX family PDZ2 domain is a canonical PDZ domain containing six beta-strands A-F and two alpha-helices (alpha-helix 1 and 2), arranged in the order: beta-strands A, B, C, alpha-helix 1, beta-strands D, E, alpha-helix 2 and beta-strand F.
Feature 1:peptide binding site [polypeptide binding site]
Evidence:
Comment:based on canonical PDZ domains with structure
Comment:PDZ domains specifically recognize and bind to short C-terminal peptide motifs, but can also recognize internal peptide motifs and certain lipids
