Table 1. Characteristics of cortactin SH3 domain-binding proteins.

The ‘Evidence’ column lists the experimental approaches used to confirm the interaction. Amino acids in the binding site that match the cortactin SH3 binding consensus are underlined. Two binding sites were identified on Dynamin 2 and CD2AP. In the case of the latter, the second site at amino acid 392 is a lower affinity site. The binding motifs on CortBP1 and CBP90 are predicted based upon deletion analysis and similarity to the consensus sequence. CBP90, cortactin-binding protein of 90 kDa; Co-IP, co-immunoprecipitation; DZO-1, Drosophila zonnula occludens 1; N.D., not determined; Y2H, yeast two hybrid analysis.
