Description: Correction:
In my lecture I incorrectly used the W single letter
designation as representing tyrosine. I miss-spoke.
W=tryptophan while Y=tyrosine.
The WW domain discussion is important for specific
protein:protein interactions wherein the tryptophan (W) residues (found in the beta1 and beta 3 folds) are separated by 20 -22 amino acids that contain certain tyrosine (Y) residues in the beta2 region which may become phosphorylated thus generating phosophotyrosine binding (PTB)domains that are recognized by other proteins.
I apologize for the error.
