  1. The ability of carboxyl terminal sequences from the indicated MUPP1 interacting proteins (baits) to interact with LNX1 and LNX2 (preys) was tested using the yeast two-hybrid system. An empty prey vector and a MUPP1 prey were included as negative and positive controls respectively. Interactions with unrelated PDZ domain-containing proteins (ERBB2IP, Nos1 and Dlg2) were assessed to demonstrate the specificity of binding to LNX proteins. Interactions between bait and prey were indicated by expression of two reporter genes - His3 and LacZ coding for β-galactosidase (β-gal). Truncated LNX1 constructs were used because the full-length protein was not functional in the yeast two-hybrid system. n/d = not determined.
