The apoptosis-linked protein ALG-2 is a Ca2+ binding protein that belongs to the penta-EF-hand protein family. ALG-2 forms a homodimer, a heterodimer with another penta-EF-hand protein, peflin, and a complex with its interacting protein, named AIP1 or Alix. By yeast two-hybrid screening using human ALG-2 as bait, we isolated a cDNA of a novel ALG-2-interacting protein, which turned out to be annexin XI. Deletion analysis revealed that ALG-2 interacted with the N-terminal domain of annexin XI (AnxN), which has an amino acid sequence similar to that of the C-terminal region of AIP1/Alix. Using recombinant biotin-tagged ALG-2 and the glutathione S-transferase (GST) fusion protein of AnxN, the direct interaction was analyzed by an ALG-2 overlay assay and by real-time interaction analysis with a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor. The dissociation constant (K-d) was estimated to be approximately 70 nM. The Ca2+-dependent fluorescence change of ALG-2 in the presence of the hydrophobicity fluorescent probe 2-p-toluidinylnaphthalene-6-sulfonate (TNS) was inhibited by mixing with GST-AnxN, suggesting that the Pro/Gly/Tyr/Ala-rich hydrophobic region in AnxN masked the Ca2+-dependently exposed hydrophobic surface of ALG-2.
