PDZ3 ligand-induced dynamics in the PDZ3-SH3-GK module facilitate oligomerisation.

(A) Schematic representation of the PSD-95 domain organisation. PSD-95 contains three PDZ domains followed by a SH3-GK domain tandem. The PSG module (PDZ3-SH3-GK) is common to the MAGUK protein …

FACS plots for Figure 1C,D.

(A, B) Gating strategy and representative dot plots of the PSD-95 oligomerisation assay as shown in Figure 1C,D. Untransfected cells or cells transfected with the indicated constructs were harvested …

Supplement for Figure 1D.

(A) PSD-95 constructs consisting of the PDZ3-SH3 domains (PS) were coexpressed together with either an SH3-GK domain construct, or a GK domain construct. As a comparison PDZ3-SH3 L460P was …

Identification of interactors that differentially bind to PSD-95 C-terminal domains.

(A) Schematic representation of the quantitative mass spectrometry experiment to identify PSD-95 GK domain interactors from crude rat synaptosomes by GST pull-down of bacterially expressed GST-GK or …

The heterotrimeric G protein subunit Gnb5 is a novel PSD-95 interactor.

(A) GST pull-down from crude synaptosomal proteins (comparable amounts of GST tagged proteins observable by Coomassie, upper panel) enabled comparison of Gnb5 binding to the GK domain alone versus …

Gnb5 - PSD-95 complex formation is regulated by CRIPT-derived PDZ3 ligand binding.

For this figure, western blots shown on the left side are representative examples of three independent experiments; the corresponding quantification of coIP band intensities from these three …

GK domain interactions are differentially regulated.

For this figure, western blots shown on the left side are representative examples of three independent experiments; the corresponding quantification of coIP band intensities from these three …

Graphical Summary.

(A) PSD-95 C-terminal domains (PSG module) functionally cooperate and regulate homotypic and heterotypic complex formation. We propose that CRIPT-derived PDZ3 ligand binding to the PDZ3 domain …
