Historical Background

Nedd4 family-interacting protein 1 (Ndfip1) was first identified in a far-western screen searching for proteins that interact with the WW domains of the Nedd4 ubiquitin ligase (Jolliffe et al. 2000). It was initially named Nedd4 WW domain-binding protein 5 (N4WBP5). Following this discovery, a closely related mammalian protein was identified (named N4WBP5A, now called Ndfip2) and further characterized as belonging to a small group of evolutionarily conserved proteins (Harvey et al. 2002), with a single homologue in yeast [Bsd2p (Hettema et al., 2004)] and Drosophila...
