| Abstract | We have identified a mammalian protein called GIPC (for GAIP interacting protein, C terminus), which has a central PDZ domain and a C-terminal acyl carrier protein (ACP) domain. The PDZ domain of GIPC specifically interacts with RGS-GAIP, a GTPase-activating protein (GAP) for Gαi subunits recently localized on clathrin-coated vesicles. Analysis of deletion mutants indicated that the PDZ domain of GIPC specifically interacts with the C terminus of GAIP (11 amino acids) in the yeast two-hybrid system and glutathione S-transferase (GST)-GIPC pull-down assays, but GIPC does not interact with other members of the RGS (regulators of G protein signaling) family tested. This finding is in keeping with the fact that the C terminus of GAIP is unique and possesses a modified C-terminal PDZ-binding motif (SEA). By immunoblotting of membrane fractions prepared from HeLa cells, we found that there are two pools of GIPC–a soluble or cytosolic pool (70%) and a membrane-associated pool (30%). By immunofluorescence, endogenous and GFP-tagged GIPC show both a diffuse and punctate cytoplasmic distribution in HeLa cells reflecting, respectively, the existence of soluble and membrane-associated pools. By immunoelectron microscopy the membrane pool of GIPC is associated with clusters of vesicles located near the plasma membrane. These data provide direct evidence that the C terminus of a RGS protein is involved in interactions specific for a given RGS protein and implicates GAIP in regulation of additional functions besides its GAP activity. The location of GIPC together with its binding to GAIP suggest that GAIP and GIPC may be components of a G protein-coupled signaling complex involved in the regulation of vesicular trafficking. The presence of an ACP domain suggests a putative function for GIPC in the acylation of vesicle-bound proteins. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
