CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF P115RHOGEF RGRGS DOMAIN

Publication Abstract from PubMed

p115RhoGEF, a guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Rho GTPase, is also a GTPase activating protein (GAP) for G(12) and G(13) heterotrimeric G alpha subunits. Near its N-terminus, p115RhoGEF contains a domain (rgRGS) with remote sequence identity to RGS (regulators of G protein signaling) domains. The rgRGS domain is necessary but not sufficient for the GAP activity of p115RhoGEF. The 1.9 A resolution crystal structure of the rgRGS domain shows structural similarity to RGS domains but possesses a C-terminal extension that folds into a layer of helices that pack against the hydrophobic core of the domain. Mutagenesis experiments show that rgRGS may form interactions with G alpha(13) that are analogous to those in complexes of RGS proteins with their G alpha substrates.
