The solution structure of an extended pleckstrin homology (PH) domain from, the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase is obtained by high resolution NMR., The structure establishes that the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase, extended PH domain has the same fold and topology as other PH domains, and, there are several unique features, most notably an extended C-terminal, alpha-helix that behaves as a molten helix, and a surface charge polarity, that is extensively modified by positive residues in the extended, alpha-helix and the C terminus. These observations complement biochemical, evidence that the C-terminal portion of this PH domain participates in, protein-protein interactions with Gbetagamma subunits. This suggests that, the C-terminal segment of the PH domain may function to mediate, protein-protein interactions with the targets of PH domains.
