With the exception of Pro38, which is a histidine residue in hISG15, all of these positions are conserved between bISG15 and the ISG15s from mice and humans. Taking the ITC data as a whole, the impact of mutations at Phe40 in bISG15 and its counterparts highlights the importance of ISG15 interdomain interactions in the effective binding of ISG15 by a protein that engages more than one domain of ISG15. ./cache/cord-303692-py908dt8.txt ./txt/cord-303692-py908dt8.txt
