“…This sequence homology translates into a leucine and aspartic acid-rich consensus sequence, LDXLLXXL, after which this domain was named [66]. This sequence has been found repeated four times within the N-terminus of the paxillin protein, defining LD motifs 1, 2, 4 and 5 [66,100,101]. The fifth LD domain, denoted by LD3 and encoded by the highly divergent exon 5, was later proposed by Tong et al in 1997 [66].…”
