Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we aimed to elucidate the activation regulation mechanism of RhoGEF proteins by GEF domain and other functional domains by analyzing their structure in full length or multidomain state. By dynamic light scattering and ultracentrifugation analysis, we found that intersectin 2 has multiple SH3 domains and DH-PH domains connected by a flexible loop, and acquires the structural freedom as a whole molecule. We also found that DOCK5 forms a stable complex with the regulatory protein ELMO1, takes up an extended structure, and binds to Rac1 on the side of the molecule. Finally, X-ray crystal structure analysis revealed structural changes of the DOCK7 DHR-2 domain in G protein binding.
