Ral GEF with PH domain and SH3 binding motif 1 and 2 Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain; RalGPS1 (also called Ral GEF with PH domain and SH3 binding motif 1;RALGEF2/ Ral guanine nucleotide exchange factor 2; RalA exchange factor RalGPS1; Ral guanine nucleotide exchange factor RalGPS1A2; ras-specific guanine nucleotide-releasing factor RalGPS1) and RalGPS2 (also called Ral GEF with PH domain and SH3 binding motif 2; Ral-A exchange factor RalGPS2; ras-specific guanine nucleotide-releasing factor RalGPS22). They activate small GTPase Ral proteins such as RalA and RalB by stimulating the exchange of Ral bound GDP to GTP, thereby regulating various downstream cellular processes. Structurally they contain an N-terminal Cdc25-like catalytic domain, followed by a PXXP motif and a C-terminal PH domain. The Cdc25-like catalytic domain interacts with Ral and its PH domain ensures the correct membrane localization. Its PXXP motif is thought to interact with the SH3 domain of Grb2. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized. Less than 10% of PH domains bind phosphoinositide phosphates (PIPs) with high affinity and specificity. PH domains are distinguished from other PIP-binding domains by their specific high-affinity binding to PIPs with two vicinal phosphate groups: PtdIns(3,4)P2, PtdIns(4,5)P2 or PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 which results in targeting some PH domain proteins to the plasma membrane. A few display strong specificity in lipid binding. Any specificity is usually determined by loop regions or insertions in the N-terminus of the domain, which are not conserved across all PH domains. PH domains are found in cellular signaling proteins such as serine/threonine kinase, tyrosine kinases, regulators of G-proteins, endocytotic GTPases, adaptors, as well as cytoskeletal associated molecules and in lipid associated enzymes. : Pssm-ID: 270120 Cd Length: 116 Bit Score: 224.83 E-value: 1.90e-72

T-lymphoma invasion and metastasis 1 and 2 Pleckstrin Homology (PH) domain, N-terminal domain; Tiam1 activates Rac GTPases to induce membrane ruffling and cell motility while Tiam2 (also called STEF (SIF (still life) and Tiam1 like-exchange factor) contributes to neurite growth. Tiam1/2 are Dbl-family of GEFs that possess a Dbl(DH) domain with a PH domain in tandem. DH-PH domain catalyzes the GDP/GTP exchange reaction in the GTPase cycle and facillitating the switch between inactive GDP-bound and active GTP-bound states. Tiam1/2 possess two PH domains, which are often referred to as PHn and PHc domains. The DH-PH tandem domain is made up of the PHc domain while the PHn is part of a novel N-terminal PHCCEx domain which is made up of the PHn domain, a coiled coil region(CC), and an extra region (Ex). PHCCEx mediates binding to plasma membranes and signalling proteins in the activation of Rac GTPases. The PH domain resembles the beta-spectrin PH domain, suggesting non-canonical phosphatidylinositol binding. CC and Ex form a positively charged surface for protein binding. There are 2 motifs in Tiam1/2-interacting proteins that bind to the PHCCEx domain: Motif-I in CD44, ephrinBs, and the NMDA receptor and Motif-II in Par3 and JIP2.Neither of these fall in the PHn domain. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized.

Autophagy-related protein 26/Sterol 3-beta-glucosyltransferase Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, repeat 1; ATG26 (also called UGT51/UDP-glycosyltransferase 51), a member of the glycosyltransferase 28 family, resulting in the biosynthesis of sterol glucoside. ATG26 in decane metabolism and autophagy. There are 32 known autophagy-related (ATG) proteins, 17 are components of the core autophagic machinery essential for all autophagy-related pathways and 15 are the additional components required only for certain pathways or species. The core autophagic machinery includes 1) the ATG9 cycling system (ATG1, ATG2, ATG9, ATG13, ATG18, and ATG27), 2) the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase complex (ATG6/VPS30, ATG14, VPS15, and ATG34), and 3) the ubiquitin-like protein system (ATG3, ATG4, ATG5, ATG7, ATG8, ATG10, ATG12, and ATG16). Less is known about how the core machinery is adapted or modulated with additional components to accommodate the nonselective sequestration of bulk cytosol (autophagosome formation) or selective sequestration of specific cargos (Cvt vesicle, pexophagosome, or bacteria-containing autophagosome formation). The pexophagosome-specific additions include the ATG30-ATG11-ATG17 receptor-adaptors complex, the coiled-coil protein ATG25, and the sterol glucosyltransferase ATG26. ATG26 is necessary for the degradation of medium peroxisomes. It contains 2 GRAM domains and a single PH domain. PH domains are only found in eukaryotes. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized. PH domains also have diverse functions. They are often involved in targeting proteins to the plasma membrane, but few display strong specificity in lipid binding. Any specificity is usually determined by loop regions or insertions in the N-terminus of the domain, which are not conserved across all PH domains.

Src kinase-associated phosphoprotein homolog and Skap 2 Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain; Adaptor protein Skap-hom, a homolog of Skap55, which interacts with actin and with ADAP (adhesion and degranulation promoting adapter protein) undergoes tyrosine phosphorylation in response to plating of bone marrow-derived macrophages on fibronectin. Skap-hom has an N-terminal coiled-coil conformation that is involved in homodimer formation, a central PH domain and a C-terminal SH3 domain that associates with ADAP. The Skap-hom PH domain regulates intracellular targeting; its interaction with the DM domain inhibits Skap-hom actin-based ruffles in macrophages and its binding to 3'-phosphoinositides reverses this autoinhibition. The Skap-hom PH domain binds PI[3,4]P2 and PI[3,4,5]P3, but not to PI[3]P, PI[5]P, or PI[4,5]P2. Skap2 is a downstream target of Heat shock transcription factor 4 (HSF4) and functions in the regulation of actin reorganization during lens differentiation. It is thought that SKAP2 anchors the complex of tyrosine kinase adaptor protein 2 (NCK20/focal adhesion to fibroblast growth factor receptors at the lamellipodium in lens epithelial cells. Skap2 has an N-terminal coiled-coil conformation which interacts with the SH2 domain of NCK2, a central PH domain and a C-terminal SH3 domain that associates with ADAP (adhesion and degranulation promoting adapter protein)/FYB (the Fyn binding protein). Skap2 PH domain binds to membrane lipids. Skap adaptor proteins couple receptors to cytoskeletal rearrangements. Src kinase-associated phosphoprotein of 55 kDa (Skap55)/Src kinase-associated phosphoprotein 1 (Skap1), Skap2, and Skap-hom have an N-terminal coiled-coil conformation, a central PH domain and a C-terminal SH3 domain. Their PH domains bind 3'-phosphoinositides as well as directly affecting targets such as in Skap55 where it directly affecting integrin regulation by ADAP and NF-kappaB activation or in Skap-hom where the dimerization and PH domains comprise a 3'-phosphoinositide-gated molecular switch that controls ruffle formation. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized. Less than 10% of PH domains bind phosphoinositide phosphates (PIPs) with high affinity and specificity.

Beta-spectrin pleckstrin homology (PH) domain; Beta spectrin binds actin and functions as a major component of the cytoskeleton underlying cellular membranes. Beta spectrin consists of multiple spectrin repeats followed by a PH domain, which binds to inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate. The PH domain of beta-spectrin is thought to play a role in the association of spectrin with the plasma membrane of cells.

348-433 | 8.76e-03 | ||||
General Receptor for Phosphoinositides-1-like Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain; GRP1/cytohesin3 and the related proteins ARNO (ARF nucleotide-binding site opener)/cytohesin-2 and cytohesin-1 are ARF exchange factors that contain a pleckstrin homology (PH) domain thought to target these proteins to cell membranes through binding polyphosphoinositides. The PH domains of all three proteins exhibit relatively high affinity for PtdIns(3,4,5)P3. Within the Grp1 family, diglycine (2G) and triglycine (3G) splice variants, differing only in the number of glycine residues in the PH domain, strongly influence the affinity and specificity for phosphoinositides. The 2G variants selectively bind PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 with high affinity,the 3G variants bind PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 with about 30-fold lower affinity and require the polybasic region for plasma membrane targeting. These ARF-GEFs share a common, tripartite structure consisting of an N-terminal coiled-coil domain, a central domain with homology to the yeast protein Sec7, a PH domain, and a C-terminal polybasic region. The Sec7 domain is autoinhibited by conserved elements proximal to the PH domain. GRP1 binds to the DNA binding domain of certain nuclear receptors (TRalpha, TRbeta, AR, ER, but not RXR), and can repress thyroid hormone receptor (TR)-mediated transactivation by decreasing TR-complex formation on thyroid hormone response elements. ARNO promotes sequential activation of Arf6, Cdc42 and Rac1 and insulin secretion. Cytohesin acts as a PI 3-kinase effector mediating biological responses including cell spreading and adhesion, chemotaxis, protein trafficking, and cytoskeletal rearrangements, only some of which appear to depend on their ability to activate ARFs. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized. Less than 10% of PH domains bind phosphoinositide phosphates (PIPs) with high affinity and specificity.
