An Eps Homology (EH) Domain Protein That Binds to the Ral-GTPase Target, RalBP1
Open accessAbstract
Ral proteins constitute a family of small GTPases that can be activated by Ras in cells. In the GTP-bound state, Ral proteins bind to RalBP1, a GTPase-activating protein for CDC42 and Rac GTPases. We have used the two-hybrid system in yeast to clone a cDNA for a novel approximately 85-kDa protein that can bind to an additional site on RalBP1. This newly identified protein contains an Eps homology (EH) domain, which was first detected in the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor substrate Eps15. Recently, the EH domain of Eps15 has been shown to bind to proteins containing an asparagine-proline-phenylalanine motif. Moreover, EH domains have been found in proteins involved in endocytosis and/or actin cytoskeleton regulation. The RalBP1 associated Eps-homology domain protein, Reps1, is tyrosine-phosphorylated in response to EGF stimulation of cells. In addition, Reps1 has the capacity to form a complex with the SH3 domains of the adapter proteins Crk and Grb2, which may link Reps1 to an EGF-responsive tyrosine kinase. Thus, Reps1 may coordinate the cellular actions of activated EGF receptors and Ral-GTPases.

Ralbp1 and Reps1 are involved in the same biological pathway.
“Ralbp1 was also identified as a significant hit in our CRISPR screen (Fig. 1D) and is an interacting factor of Reps1 (Figs. 3B and 5B) (35), suggesting that Ralbp1 and Reps1 are involved in the same biological pathway.”

RalBP1 directly interacts with EH domain proteins POB1 and Reps1.
“Endocytosis occurs when active RalA associates with RalBP1/RLIP76 [31],[32], an endocytic adaptor that directly interacts with the μ2 subunit of the endocytic AP2 complex [33] and EH domain proteins POB1 and Reps1 [34],[35].”

The binding experiments in “Cloning of Reps1 cDNA” report that RalBP1 binds Reps1, not POB1 or AP2. A search of our copy for POB1 and AP2 found no passage establishing direct binding to either protein; the Discussion mentions an adaptin association with Eps15 instead. No page numbers were available for these passages. (LLM, conf=0.74)

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.
