Cytohesin-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CYTH2 gene. [5] [6] [7]
Cytohesin-2 (CYTH2), formerly known as Pleckstrin homology, Sec7 and coiled/coil domains 2 (PSCD2), is a member of the cytohesin family. Members of this family have identical structural organization that consists of an N-terminal coiled-coil motif, a central Sec7 domain, and a C-terminal pleckstrin homology (PH) domain. The coiled-coil motif is involved in homodimerization, the Sec7 domain contains guanine-nucleotide exchange protein (GEP) activity, and the PH domain interacts with phospholipids and is responsible for association of CYTHs with membranes. Members of this family appear to mediate the regulation of protein sorting and membrane trafficking. CYTH2 exhibits GEP activity in vitro with ARF1, ARF3, and ARF6. CYTH2 protein is 83% homologous to CYTH1. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [7]
CYTH2 has been shown to interact with Arrestin beta 2 [8] and Arrestin beta 1. [8]
ADP-ribosylation factor 6 (ARF6) is a member of the ADP ribosylation factor family of GTP-binding proteins. ARF6 has a variety of cellular functions that are frequently involved in trafficking of biological membranes and transmembrane protein cargo. ARF6 has specifically been implicated in endocytosis of plasma membrane proteins and also, to a lesser extent, plasma membrane protein recycling.
G-protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ADRBK1 gene. GRK2 was initially called Beta-adrenergic receptor kinase, and is a member of the G protein-coupled receptor kinase subfamily of the Ser/Thr protein kinases that is most highly similar to GRK3(βARK2).
ADP-ribosylation factor 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ARF1 gene.
Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 7 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ARHGEF7 gene.
Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 6 is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the ARHGEF6 gene.
Cytohesin-1 formerly known as Pleckstrin homology, Sec7 and coiled/coil domains 1 (PSCD1) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CYTH1 gene.
ADP-ribosylation factor 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ARF3 gene.
Brefeldin A-inhibited guanine nucleotide-exchange protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ARFGEF2 gene.
ADP-ribosylation factor 5 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ARF5 gene.
ADP-ribosylation factor-like protein 4A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ARL4A gene.
ADP-ribosylation factor 4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ARF4 gene.
ADP-ribosylation factor-like protein 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ARL3 gene.
Brefeldin A-inhibited guanine nucleotide-exchange protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ARFGEF1 gene.
Arf-GAP with SH3 domain, ANK repeat and PH domain-containing protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ASAP2 gene.
ADP-ribosylation factor-related protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ARFRP1 gene.
GTP-binding protein ARD-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TRIM23 gene.
Cytohesin-3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CYTH3 gene.
Cytohesin-interacting protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CYTIP gene.
IQ motif and SEC7 domain-containing protein 1 also known as ARF-GEP100 (ADP-Ribosylation Factor - Guanine nucleotide-Exchange Protein - 100-kDa) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IQSEC1 gene.
Cytohesin-4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CYTH4 gene.
