Crystal Structure of GTP-bound ADP-ribosylation Factor Like Protein 1 (Arl1) and GRIP Domain of Golgin245 COMPLEX

Overview

Recruitment of the GRIP domain golgins to the trans-Golgi network is, mediated by Arl1, a member of the ARF/Arl small GTPase family, through, interaction between their GRIP domains and Arl1-GTP. The crystal structure, of Arl1-GTP in complex with the GRIP domain of golgin-245 shows that, Arl1-GTP interacts with the GRIP domain predominantly in a hydrophobic, manner, with the switch II region conferring the main recognition surface., The involvement of the switch and interswitch regions in the interaction, between Arl1-GTP and GRIP accounts for the specificity of GRIP domain for, Arl1-GTP. Mutations that abolished the Arl1-mediated Golgi localization of, GRIP domain golgins have been mapped on the interface between Arl1-GTP and, GRIP. Notably, the GRIP domain forms a homodimer in which each subunit, interacts separately with one Arl1-GTP. Mutations disrupting the GRIP, domain dimerization also abrogated its Golgi targeting, suggesting that, the dimeric form of GRIP domain is a functional unit.
