The RalB-RLIP76 Complex Reveals a Novel Mode of Ral-Effector Interaction
Open accessAbstract
RLIP76 (RalBP1) is a multidomain protein that interacts with multiple small G protein families: Ral via a specific binding domain, and Rho and R-Ras via a GTPase activating domain. RLIP76 interacts with endocytosis proteins and has also been shown to behave as a membrane ATPase that transports chemotherapeutic agents from the cell. We have determined the structure of the Ral-binding domain of RLIP76 and show that it comprises a coiled-coil motif. The structure of the RLIP76-RalB complex reveals a novel mode of binding compared to the structures of RalA complexed with the exocyst components Sec5 and Exo84. RLIP76 interacts with both nucleotide-sensitive regions of RalB, and key residues in the interface have been identified using affinity measurements of RalB mutants. Sec5, Exo84, and RLIP76 bind Ral proteins competitively and with similar affinities in vitro.

Ralbp1 selectively binds to the active GTP-bound form of Ral GTPases.
“Ralbp1 selectively binds to the active GTP-bound form of Ral GTPases, offering a reliable approach to quantify active RalA proteins (37, 45, 46).”
From Regulation of cargo exocytosis by a Reps1-Ralbp1-RalA module (2023) · cites this paper as [45]
In Results and Discussion, the paper reports high-affinity binding of RLIP76 to RalB·GTP and shows that its binding domain contacts nucleotide-sensitive switch regions of RalB. The passages do not establish selective binding over GDP-bound Ral or demonstrate that selectivity across Ral GTPases. (LLM, conf=0.83)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredRalbp1 interacts with switches 1 and 2 of GTP-bound Rals, the same region recognized by RalGAPs.
“Ralbp1 interacts with switches 1 and 2 of GTP-bound Rals, the same region recognized by RalGAPs (12, 45, 60).”
From Regulation of cargo exocytosis by a Reps1-Ralbp1-RalA module (2023) · cites this paper as [45]
The Results and Discussion section (“Structure of the RLIP76 GBD-RalB complex”; page unavailable) shows that RLIP76/RalBP1 contacts switches 1 and 2 of activated RalB. The paper does not establish that RalGAPs recognize the same region; its discussion of GAP activity concerns RLIP76 acting on Rac1 and Cdc42, not RalGAP binding to Ral. (LLM, conf=0.87)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredSubsequent dissociation of Ralbp1 from RalA is expected to result from direct competition from exocyst as Ralbp1 and exocyst recognize the same domain of GTP-bound Ral GTPases.
“Subsequent dissociation of Ralbp1 from RalA, on the other hand, is expected to result from direct competition from exocyst as Ralbp1 and exocyst recognize the same domain of GTP-bound Ral GTPases (4, 9, 45).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
