Self-assembly via coiled-coil domains (CC) is crucial for the regulation of the dystrophia myotonica kinase (DMPK) -related family of kinases. These CC domains are thought to form dimeric arrangements and thus to mediate dimerization in these enzymes. Using size exclusion chromatography combined with multiangle static light scattering, we analyzed the oligomeric state of DMPK as well as that of a truncated variant lacking the CC fraction ...
