DomainAlthough both PH domains of isoforms 1 and 2 bind phospholipids, they differently regulate subcellular location. PH domain of isoform 1 directs the protein to the nucleus, but PH domain of isoform 2 directs it to the cytosol. PH domain of isoform 2 is required for binding to AP-1.
DomainArf-GAP domain interacts with G domain and may regulate its GTPase activity.
DomainG domain binds GTP and has GTPase activity.
Enzyme RegulationGAP activity is stimulated by phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) and, to a lesser extent, by phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP3). Phosphatidic acid potentiates PIP2 stimulation.
FunctionGTPase-activating protein (GAP) for ARF1 and ARF5, which also shows strong GTPase activity. Isoform 1 participates in the prevention of neuronal apoptosis by enhancing PI3 kinase activity. It aids the coupling of metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 (GRM1) to cytoplasmic PI3 kinase by interacting with Homer scaffolding proteins, and also seems to mediate anti-apoptotic effects of NGF by activating nuclear PI3 kinase. Isoform 2 does not stimulate PI3 kinase but may protect cells from apoptosis by stimulating Akt. It also regulates the adapter protein 1 (AP-1)-dependent trafficking of proteins in the endosomal system. It seems to be oncogenic. It is overexpressed in cancer cells, prevents apoptosis and promotes cancer cell invasion. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12640130, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14761976, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15118108, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16079295}.
