The Role of Helix C in β-Catenin Protein-Protein Interactions

(A) Potential interactions between β-catenin helix C and ICAT. β-catenin-R1C (βcat-R1C, cyan) is superimposed onto β-catenin/ICAT (βcat/ICAT, yellow and magenta), based on the Cα's of β-catenin armadillo repeats 10?12 (residues 563?663).

(B) Helix C is unlikely to affect the interaction between the phophorylated E-cadherin and β-catenin armadillo repeats. β-catenin-R1C (βcat-R1C, cyane) is superimposed with β-catenin/phospho-Ecadherin (βcat/pEcad, yellow and red, PDB code: 1I7W) based on all twelve armadillo repeats.

(C) The helix C is required for β-catenin to interact with Chibby. Purified MBP-Chibby protein was immobilized to amylose beads; purified β-catenin and β-catenin fragments were tested for their binding to immobilized MBP-Chibby. The total input and bound β-catenin and β-catenin fragments were visualized by Western blot.
