IPR018203

Description

IPR018203 is a GDP dissociation inhibitor.

<p>Rab proteins constitute a family of small GTPases that serve a regulatory role in vesicular membrane traffic [[cite:PUB00001266], [cite:PUB00000785]]; C-terminal geranylgeranylation is crucial for their membrane association and function. This post-translational modification is catalysed by Rab geranylgeranyl transferase (Rab-GGTase), a multi-subunit enzyme that contains a catalytic heterodimer and an accessory component, termed Rab escort protein (REP)-1 [[cite:PUB00001266]]. REP-1 presents newly- synthesised Rab proteins to the catalytic component, and forms a stable complex with the prenylated proteins following the transfer reaction. <p>The mechanism of REP-1-mediated membrane association of Rab5 is similar to that mediated by Rab GDP dissociation inhibitor (GDI). REP-1 and Rab GDI also share other functional properties, including the ability to inhibit the release of GDP and to remove Rab proteins from membranes.</p> <p>The crystal structure of the bovine alpha-isoform of Rab GDI has been determined to a resolution of 1.81A [[cite:PUB00004235]]. The protein is composed of two main structural units: a large complex multi-sheet domain I, and a smaller α-helical domain II.</p> <p>The structural organisation of domain I is closely related to FAD-containing monooxygenases and oxidases [[cite:PUB00004235]]. Conserved regions common to GDI and the choroideraemia gene product, which delivers Rab to catalytic subunits of Rab geranylgeranyltransferase II, are clustered on one face of the domain [[cite:PUB00000785]]. The two most conserved regions form a compact structure at the apex of the molecule; site-directed mutagenesis has shown these regions to play a critical role in the binding of Rab proteins [[cite:PUB00004235]].</p>
