The various Gag proteins were fused to the DNA-binding domain, and human endophilin 2 was fused to the activation domain. All constructs tested negative for self-activation. Symbols: -, no blue color after 24 h in reaction; +, yeast turn blue after 2 h; ++, blue develops between 30 min and 2 h; +++, blue in approximately 30 min; ++++, blue between 15 and 30 min.
