Product Specs

Introduction
GIPC1, a PDZ domain-containing protein, interacts with RGS-GAIP and the viral oncoprotein TAX. TAX activates viral and cellular promoters through interactions with various transcription factors. GIPC1 is primarily located in vesicle clusters near the plasma membrane and plays a role in G protein-coupled signaling pathways. It participates in regulating clathrin-coated vesicular trafficking. Additionally, GIPC1 interacts with membrane-bound Semaphorin F, involved in neuronal axon growth, and regulates the subcellular distribution of M-SemF in the brain.

Product Science Overview

Gene and Protein Structure

The GIPC1 gene is located on chromosome 19 at the position 19p13.12 . The gene encodes a protein that is approximately 36 kDa in size and consists of 333 amino acids . The protein contains a central PDZ domain, which is a compact protein module that mediates specific protein-protein interactions .

Function and Mechanism

GIPC1 is primarily involved in the regulation of cell surface receptor expression and trafficking . It acts as a scaffolding protein, meaning it helps organize and stabilize various signaling complexes within the cell. One of the key interactions of GIPC1 is with the C-terminus of RGS-GAIP, a protein involved in the regulation of G protein signaling . GIPC1 is also known to interact with other proteins, contributing to its role in multiple signaling pathways.

Biological Processes

GIPC1 is implicated in several biological processes, including:

  • G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway: GIPC1 plays a role in the signaling pathways mediated by G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), which are involved in various physiological responses .
  • Regulation of protein stability: GIPC1 helps in maintaining the stability of certain proteins within the cell .
  • Endothelial cell migration: GIPC1 is involved in the movement of endothelial cells, which are essential for the formation of new blood vessels .
  • Synaptic plasticity: GIPC1 contributes to the regulation of synaptic plasticity, which is crucial for learning and memory .
Clinical Significance

Mutations or dysregulation of the GIPC1 gene have been associated with certain diseases, including:

  • Oculopharyngodistal Myopathy 1 and 2: These are genetic disorders characterized by muscle weakness and wasting, particularly affecting the eyes and throat .
  • Cancer: Abnormal expression of GIPC1 has been observed in various cancers, suggesting its potential role in tumorigenesis .
Research and Applications

Recombinant GIPC1 protein is used in research to study its interactions and functions in cellular processes. Understanding the role of GIPC1 can provide insights into the mechanisms of diseases and potentially lead to the development of therapeutic strategies.
