canonical PDZ domain; Canonical PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain. PDZ domains usually bind to short specific peptide sequences located at the C-terminal end of their partner proteins known as PDZ binding motifs. These domains can also interact with internal peptide motifs and certain lipids, and can take part in a head-to-tail oligomerization with other PDZ domains. The PDZ superfamily includes canonical PDZ domains as well as those with circular permutations and domain swapping mediated by beta-strands. The canonical PDZ domain contains 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.

PDZ domain 3 of PDZ domain containing 2 (PDZD2), PDZ domain 1 of human pro-interleukin-16 (isoform 1, 1332 AA), and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain 3 of PDZD2, also known as KIAA0300, PIN-1, activated in prostate cancer (AIPC) and PDZ domain-containing protein 3 (PDZK3). PDZD2 has seven PDZ domains. PDZD2 is expressed at exceptionally high levels in the pancreas and certain cancer tissues, such as prostate cancer. It promotes the proliferation of insulinoma cells and is upregulated during prostate tumorigenesis. In osteosarcoma (OS), the microRNA miR-363 acts as a tumor suppressor by inhibiting PDZD2. This family also includes the first PDZ domain (PDZ1) of human pro-interleukin-16 (isoform 1, also known as nPro-Il-16; 1332 amino-acid protein). Precursor IL-16 is cleaved to produce pro-IL-16 and mature IL-16 (derived from the C-terminal 121 AA). Pro-IL-16 functions as a regulator of T cell growth; mature IL-16 is a CD4 ligand that induces chemotaxis and CD25 expression in CD4+ T cells. IL-16 bioactivity has been closely associated with the progression of several different cancers. 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.

PDZ domain of protein Lin-7 and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain of Lin-7 (also known as LIN-7 or LIN7), and related domains. Lin-7 targets and organize protein complexes to epithelial and synaptic plasma membranes. There are three mammalian Lin-7 homologs: Lin-7A (protein lin-7 homolog A, also known as mammalian lin-seven protein 1 (MALS-1), vertebrate lin-7 homolog 1 (Veli-1), tax interaction protein 33); Lin-7B (also known as MALS-2, Veli-2); and Lin-7C (also known as MALS-3, Veli-3). Lin-7 is involved in localization of the Let-23 growth factor receptor to the basolateral membrane of epithelial cells, in tight junction localization of insulin receptor substrate p53 (IRSp53), in retaining gamma-aminobutyric (GABA) transporter (BGT-1) at the basolateral surface of epithelial cells, and in regulating recruitment of neurotransmitter receptors to the postsynaptic density (PSD). The Lin7 PDZ domain binds Let-23, BGT and beta-catenin, and NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptor NR2B. Lin-7 also binds to the PDZ binding motif located in the C-terminal tail of Rhotekin, an effector protein for small GTPase Rho. 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.

PDZ domain 3 of partitioning defective 3 (Par3), and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain 3 of Par3 (or PAR3 or Par-3, also known as Atypical PKC isotype-specific-interacting protein, ASIP, Drosophila Bazooka) and related domains. Par3 is a scaffold protein involved in organizing cell polarity across animals. Par3 binds numerous molecules both for its recruitment to one pole of the cell and for downstream contributions to polarized cell function. It regulates cell polarity by targeting the Par complex proteins Par6 and atypical protein kinase C (aPKC) to specific cortical sites. Physical interactions between Par-3 and the Par complex include Par3 PDZ domain 1 binding to the Par6 PDZ domain, Par3 PDZ domain 1 and PDZ domain 3 binding the Par6's PDZ-binding motif, and an interaction with an undefined region of aPKC that requires both Par3 PDZ2 and PDZ3. The PDZ domains of Par3 have also been implicated as potential phosphoinositide signaling integrators, since its second PDZ domain binds to phosphoinositides, and the third PDZ interacts with phosphoinositide phosphatase PTEN. 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.

MUPP1 and PATJ serve as scaffolding proteins linking different proteins and protein complexes involved in the organization of tight junctions and epithelial polarity. MUPP1 contains an L27 (Lin-2 and Lin-7 binding) domain and 13 PDZ domains. PATJ (also known as INAD-like) contains an L27 domain and ten PDZ domains. MUPP1 and PATJ share several binding partners, including junctional adhesion molecules (JAM), zonula occludens (ZO)-3, Pals1 (protein associated with Lin-7), Par (partitioning defective)-6 proteins, and nectins (adherence junction adhesion molecules). PATJ lacks 3 PDZ domains seen in MUPP1: PDZ6, 9, and 13; consequently, MUPP1 PDZ7 and 8 align with PATJ PDZ6 and 7; and MUPP1 PDZ domains 10-12 align with PATJ PDZ domains 8-10.

PDZ domain of Rab3-interacting molecule 1 (RIM), RIM2, piccolo and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain of RIM, RIM2, piccolo and related domains. RIM proteins and Gallus gallus protein piccolo (also called aczonin) are involved in neurotransmitter release at presynaptic active zones, the site of vesicle fusion. A protein complex containing RIM proteins positions synaptic vesicles containing synaptotagmin at the active zone. RIM proteins simultaneously activate docking and priming of synaptic vesicles and recruit Ca2+-channels to active zones, thereby connecting primed synaptic vesicles to Ca2+-channels. RIM binding to vesicular Rab proteins (Rab3 and Rab27 isoforms) mediates vesicle docking; RIM binding to Munc13 activates vesicle priming; RIM binding to the Ca2+-channel, both directly and indirectly via RIM-BP, recruits the Ca2+-channels. The RIM PDZ domain interacts with the C-termini of N- and P/Q-type voltage-gated Ca2+-channels. RIM1, RIM2 and piccolo also participate in regulated exocytosis through binding cAMP-GEFII (cAMP-binding protein-guanidine nucleotide exchange factor II). The piccolo PDZ domain binds cAMP-GEFII. RIM2 also plays a role in dendrite formation by melanocytes. Caenorhabditis elegans RIM (also known as unc-10) may be involved in the regulation of defecation and daumone response. 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).

GRIP1 and GRIP2 each have 7 PDZ domains. The interaction of GRIP1 and GRIP2 with GluA2/3 (AMPAR subunit) regulates AMPAR trafficking and synaptic targeting. GRIP1 has an essential role in regulating AMPAR trafficking during synaptic plasticity and learning and memory. GRIP1 and GRIP2 interact with a variety of other proteins associated with protein trafficking and internalization, for example GRIP1 also interacts with KIF5 (also known as kinesin 1), EphB receptors, scaffold protein liprin-alpha, and the rasGEF GRASP-1.

PDZ domain 3 of the canonical isoform 1 of PDZ domain containing 7 (PDZD7), and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain 3 of the long isoform 1 of PDZD7, and related domains. PDZD7 is critical for the organization of the Usher syndrome type 2 (USH2) complex. Usher syndrome is the leading cause of hereditary sensory deaf-blindness in humans; USH2 is the most common sub-type. Formation of the USH2 complex is based upon heterodimerization between PDZD7 and whirlin (another PDZ domain-containing protein) and a subsequent dynamic interplay between USH2 proteins via their multiple PDZ domains. The PDZD7 PDZ2 domain binds GPR98 (also known as VLGR1) and usherin (USH2A). PDZD7 and whirlin form heterodimers through their multiple PDZ domains; whirlin and PDZD7 interact with usherin and GPR98 to form an interdependent ankle link complex. PDZD7 also interacts with myosin VIIa and can also form homodimers through its PDZ2 domain. Various isoforms of PDZD7 produced by alternative splicing have been identified; this subgroup includes the third PDZ domain of the canonical isoform of PDZD7- isoform 1. 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.

Dlg2 is involved in N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor signaling, regulating surface expression of NMDA receptors in dorsal horn neurons of the spinal cord; it interacts with NMDA receptor subunits and with Shaker-type K+ channel subunits to cluster into a channel complex. The Dlg4 PDZ1 domain binds NMDA receptors, and its PDZ2 domain binds neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), forming a complex in neurons. The Drosophila Scribble complex (Scribble, Dlg, and lethal giant larvae) plays a role in apico-basal cell polarity, and in other forms of polarity, including regulation of the actin cytoskeleton, cell signaling and vesicular trafficking, and in tumor development; postsynaptic targeting of Drosophila DLG requires interactions mediated by the first two 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 Dlg-like family PDZ3 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.

PTPN13, also known as Fas-associated protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1 (FAP-1), protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1E (PTP-E1), and protein-tyrosine phosphatase (PTPL1), negatively regulates FAS-mediated apoptosis and NGFR-mediated pro-apoptotic signaling, and may also regulate phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) signaling. It contains 5 PDZ domains; interaction partners of its second PDZ domain (PDZ2) include the Fas receptor (TNFRSF6) and thyroid receptor-interacting protein 6 (TRIP6). The second PDZ (PDZ2) domain, but not PDZ1 or PDZ3, of FRMPD2 binds to GluN2A and GluN2B, two subunits of N-methyl-d-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptors. Other binding partners of the FRMPDZ2 PDZ2 domain include NOD2, and catenin family members, delta catenin (CTNND2), armadillo repeat gene deleted in velo-cardio-facial syndrome (ARVCF) and p0071 (also known as plakophilin 4; PKP4). 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).

This IL16-PDZ0 domain is not found in the human pro-interleukin-16 (isoform 1, 1332 AA, pro-IL-16) which has 4 PDZ domains (PDZ1-4). Gallus gallus IL-16 has 5 PDZ domains: this N-terminal PDZ0, followed by 4 PDZ domains (PDZ1-4) which are homologous to human pro-IL-16 PDZ1-4. Precursor IL-16 is cleaved to produce pro-IL-16 and mature IL-16 (derived from the C-terminal 121 AA). Pro-IL-16 functions as a regulator of T cell growth; mature IL-16 is a CD4 ligand that induces chemotaxis and CD25 expression in CD4+ T cells. IL-16 bioactivity has been closely associated with the progression of several different cancers, including Gallus gallus IL-16 in the development of ovarian tumor and tumor-associated neoangiogenesis (TAN) in laying hens, an animal model of spontaneous ovarian cancer.

PDZD2 has seven PDZ domains. PDZD2 is expressed at exceptionally high levels in the pancreas and certain cancer tissues, such as prostate cancer. It promotes the proliferation of insulinoma cells and is upregulated during prostate tumorigenesis. In osteosarcoma (OS), the microRNA miR-363 acts as a tumor suppressor by inhibiting PDZD2. This family include the PDZ domain of the secreted mature form of human interleukin-16 (IL-16); this is the fourth PDZ domain (PDZ4) of human pro-interleukin-16 (isoform 1, also known as nPro-Il-16). Precursor IL-16 is cleaved to produce pro-IL-16 and C-terminal mature IL-16. Pro-IL-16 functions as a regulator of T cell growth; mature IL-16 is a CD4 ligand that induces chemotaxis and CD25 expression in CD4+ T cells. IL-16 bioactivity has been closely associated with the progression of several different cancers 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).

PDZ domain 1 of partitioning defective 3 (Par3), and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain 1 of Par3 (or PAR3 or Par-3, also known as Atypical PKC isotype-specific-interacting protein, ASIP) and related domains; Drosophila bazooka PDZ1 belongs to a different PDZ family. Par3 is a scaffold protein involved in organizing cell polarity across animals. Par3 binds numerous molecules both for its recruitment to one pole of the cell and for downstream contributions to polarized cell function. It regulates cell polarity by targeting the Par complex proteins Par6 and atypical protein kinase C (aPKC) to specific cortical sites. Physical interactions between Par3 and the Par complex include: Par-3 PDZ domain 1 binding to the Par6 PDZ domain, Par3 PDZ domain 1 and PDZ domain 3 binding the Par6's PDZ-binding motif, and an interaction with an undefined region of aPKC that requires both Par3 PDZ2 and PDZ3. The PDZ domains of Par3 have also been implicated as potential phosphoinositide signaling integrators, since its second PDZ domain binds to phosphoinositides, and the third PDZ interacts with phosphoinositide phosphatase PTEN. 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).

Harmonin (also known as Usher Type 1C, PDZ-73 and AIE-75) is a key organizer of the Usher (USH) protein interactome. USH syndrome is the leading cause of hereditary sensory deaf-blindness in humans; three clinically distinct types of USH have been identified, type 1 to 3. The gene encoding harmonin (USH1C) is the causative gene for the USH type 1C phenotype. There are at least 10 alternatively spliced isoforms of harmonin, which are divided into three subclasses (a, b, and c). All isoforms contain the first two PDZ domains and the first coiled-coil domain. The a and b isoforms all have a third PDZ domain. The different PDZ domains are responsible for interactions with all known Usher syndrome type 1 proteins, and most Usher syndrome type 2 proteins. 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.

PDZ domain of densin, erbin, and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain of densin, erbin, and related domains. Densin (also known as leucine-rich repeat-containing protein 7, LRRC7, densin-180, protein LAP1) and erbin (also known as densin-180-like protein, Erbb2-interacting protein, protein LAP2) belong to the LAP (leucine-rich repeat and PDZ domain) family of scaffolding proteins that play roles in the maintenance of cell shape and apical-basal polarity. Densin and erbin are components of the excitatory postsynaptic compartment and are regulators of dendritic morphology and postsynaptic structure. The densin PDZ domain binds CaV1.3 alpha1 subunit, delta-catenin, and MAGUIN-1. Binding partners of the erbin PDZ domain include ErbB receptor tyrosine kinase ErbB2, HTLV-1 Tax1, Cav1.3 Ca2+channels, and constituents of the cadherin:catenin cell adhesion complex, in particular delta-catenin, p0071 and ARVCF. The erbin PDZ domain binds Smad3, a transductor of the TGFbeta pathway, possibly by a novel interface of binding. Erbin and two other LAP proteins (scribble and lano) redundantly regulate epithelial polarity and apical adhesion complex.

They belong to the LAP family, which describes proteins that contain either one or four PDZ domains and 16 LRRs (leucine-rich repeats) and function in controlling cell shape, size and subcellular protein localization. In Drosophila, the Scribble complex, comprising Scribble, discs large, and lethal giant larvae, plays a role in apico-basal cell polarity, in other forms of polarity, including regulation of the actin cytoskeleton, cell signaling and vesicular trafficking, and in tumor development. Mammalian Scribble is important in many aspects of cancer development. Scribble and its homologs can be downregulated or overexpressed in cancer; they have a role in cancer beyond their function in loss of cell polarity.

GRIP1 and GRIP2 each have 7 PDZ domains. The interaction of GRIP1 and GRIP2 with GluA2/3 (AMPAR subunit) regulates AMPAR trafficking and synaptic targeting. GRIP1 has an essential role in regulating AMPAR trafficking during synaptic plasticity and learning and memory. GRIP1 and GRIP2 interact with a variety of other proteins associated with protein trafficking and internalization, for example GRIP1 also interacts with KIF5 (also known as kinesin 1), EphB receptors, scaffold protein liprin-alpha, and the rasGEF GRASP-1.

PDZ domain of membrane palmitoylated protein 5 (MPP5), Drosophila Stardust, and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain of MPP5, Drosophila Stardust, and related domains. MPP5 (also known as MAGUK p55 subfamily member 1, protein associated with Lin-7 1 or PALS1) and Drosophila Stardust are membrane-associated guanylate kinase (MAGUK)-like proteins that serve as signaling and scaffolding proteins, linking different proteins critical to the formation and maintenance of tight junctions (TJ) and apical-basal polarity. Apical-basal polarity determinants cluster in complexes; in particular, the Crumbs complex (Crb, MPP5, and PATJ) and the PAR/aPKC-complex (PAR-3, PAR-6, aPKC) determine the apical plasma membrane domain. Within the Crumbs complex, Crb is stabilized in the plasma membrane by MPP5, which in turn recruits PATJ and Lin-7 to the complex. MPP5 also links the Crumbs complex with the PAR/aPKC-complex. The Drosophila homolog of the Crumbs complex is the (CRB)-Stardust (Sdt)-Discs Lost (Dlt) complex. MPP5 also acts as an interaction partner for SARS-CoV envelope protein E, which results in delayed formation of TJs and dysregulation of cell polarity. 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.

PDZ domain 2 of PDZ domain-containing RING finger protein 4 (PDZRN4), PDZRN3-B, and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain 1 of PDZRN4, PDZRN3-B, and related domains. PDZRN4 (also known as ligand of numb protein X 4, and SEMACAP3-like protein) contains an N-terminal RING domain and two tandem repeat PDZ domains. It is involved in the progression of cancer, including human liver cancer and breast cancer, and may contribute to the tumorigenesis of rectal adenocarcinoma. Danio rerio PDZRN3-B may participate in neurogenesis: the first PDZ domain of Danio rerio Pdzrn3 interacts with Kidins220 (Kinase D-interacting substrate 220 kD, also named Ankyrin Repeat-Rich Membrane Spanning), a crucial mediator of signal transduction in neural tissues. 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 PDZRN4-like 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.

PDZ domain of Rap guanine nucleotide exchange factor 2 and Rap guanine nucleotide exchange factor 6, and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain of Rap guanine nucleotide exchange factor 2 (RapGEF2, also named RA-GEF-1, PDZ-GEF1, CNrasGEF and nRapGEP) and Rap guanine nucleotide exchange factor 6 (RapGEF6, also named RA-GEF-2 and PDZ-GEF2). RapGEF2 and RapGEF6 constitute a subfamily of guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) for RAP small GTPases that is characterized by the possession of the PDZ and Ras/Rap-associating domains. They activate Rap small GTPases, by catalyzing the release of GDP from the inactive GDP-bound forms, thereby accelerating GTP loading to yield the active GTP-bound forms. The PDZ domain of RapGEF6 (also known as PDZ-GEF2) binds junctional adhesion molecule A (JAM-A). 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 RapGEF2 and RapGEF6 family 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.

PDZ domain 12 of multi-PDZ-domain protein 1 (MUPP1), PDZ domain 10 of protein-associated tight junction (PATJ, and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain 12 of MUPP1, PDZ domain 10 of PATJ, and related domains. MUPP1 and PATJ serve as scaffolding proteins linking different proteins and protein complexes involved in the organization of tight junctions and epithelial polarity. MUPP1 contains an L27 (Lin-2 and Lin-7 binding) domain and 13 PDZ domains. PATJ (also known as INAD-like) contains an L27 domain and ten PDZ domains. MUPP1 and PATJ share several binding partners, including junctional adhesion molecules (JAM), zonula occludens (ZO)-3, Pals1 (protein associated with Lin-7), Par (partitioning defective)-6 proteins, and nectins (adherence junction adhesion molecules). PATJ lacks 3 PDZ domains seen in MUPP1: PDZ6, 9, and 13; consequently, MUPP1 PDZ7 and 8 align with PATJ PDZ6 and 7; and MUPP1 PDZ domains 10-12 align with PATJ PDZ domains 8-10. 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 MUPP1-like PDZ12 family 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

PDZ domain 4 of inactivation-no-after-potential D (INAD), and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain 4 of INAD, and related domains. INAD assembles key enzymes of the Drosophila compound eye photo-transduction pathway into a supramolecular complex, supporting efficient and fast light signaling. It contains 5 PDZ domains arranged in tandem (PDZ1-PDZ5) which independently bind various proteins. INAD PDZ2 binds eye-specific protein kinase C, INAD PDZ3 binds transient receptor potential (TRP) channel, and INAD PDZ4,5 tandem binds NORPA (phospholipase Cbeta, PLCbeta). Mutations of the inaD gene that lead to disruption of each of these interactions impair fly photo signal transduction. 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 INAD-like family PDZ4 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.
