canonical GAT domain found in ADP-ribosylation factor-binding protein GGA3; GGA3, also called Golgi-localized gamma ear-containing Arf-binding protein 3, belongs to a family of ubiquitously expressed, monomeric, motif-binding cargo/clathrin adaptor proteins that regulate clathrin-mediated trafficking of cargo proteins from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to endosomes. GGA3 interacts selectively with the Met/Hepatocyte Growth Factor receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) when stimulated. It functions as a specific cargo adaptor to target the Met RTK into recycling tubules, and further coordinates the recycling, signaling and degradative fates of the Met RTK. Moreover, GGA3, together with PACS-1 and the protein kinase CK2, forms a complex that regulates cation-independent mannose-6-phosphate receptor (CI-MPR) trafficking. Furthermore, GGA3 has been identified as an interacting protein of the beta-site APP-cleaving enzyme-1 (BACE1), a stress-related protease that is involved in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology. GGA3 has a multidomain structure consisting of an N-terminal VHS (Vps27/Hrs/Stam) domain, a GAT (GGA and TOM) domain, a largely unstructured hinge region that contains clathrin-binding motifs, and a C-terminal GAE (gamma-adaptin ear homology) domain. The GAT domain of GGAs interacts with class I GTP-bound form of Arf proteins, Rabaptin-5, ubiquitin, and/or the tumor susceptibility gene 101 product (TSG101).

Adaptin C-terminal domain; Adaptins are components of the adaptor complexes which link clathrin to receptors in coated vesicles. Clathrin-associated protein complexes are believed to interact with the cytoplasmic tails of membrane proteins, leading to their selection and concentration. Gamma-adaptin is a subunit of the golgi adaptor. Alpha adaptin is a heterotetramer that regulates clathrin-bud formation. The carboxyl-terminal appendage of the alpha subunit regulates translocation of endocytic accessory proteins to the bud site. This Ig-fold domain is found in alpha, beta and gamma adaptins and consists of a beta-sandwich containing 7 strands in 2 beta-sheets in a greek-key topology.. The adaptor appendage contains an additional N-terminal strand.

canonical GAT domain found in ADP-ribosylation factor (Arf)-binding proteins GGA1 and GGA2; This subfamily includes GGA1 and GGA2, both of which belong to a family of ubiquitously expressed, monomeric, motif-binding cargo/clathrin adaptor proteins that regulate clathrin-mediated trafficking of cargo proteins from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to endosomes. GGA1, also called gamma-adaptin-related protein 1, or Golgi-localized gamma ear-containing Arf-binding protein 1, regulates the low-density lipoprotein and sorting receptor LR11/SorLA endocytic traffic and further alters amyloid-beta precursor protein (APP) intracellular distribution and amyloid-beta production. It is also critical for the effects of beta-site APP-cleaving enzyme-1 (BACE1) on amyloid-beta generation. It interacts with BACE1 and promotes its traffic from early endosomes to late endocytic compartments or the TGN. Moreover, GGA1 acts as a clathrin assembly protein with the ability to polymerize clathrin into tubules. GGA2, also called gamma-adaptin-related protein 2, Golgi-localized gamma ear-containing Arf-binding protein 2, or VHS domain and ear domain of gamma-adaptin (Vear), interacts with the acidic cluster-dileucine motif in the cytoplasmic tail of the cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CI-MPR) and further plays a major role in the sorting of lysosomal enzymes. It also mediates a vital function that cannot be compensated for by GGA1 and/or GGA3. Both GGA1 and GGA2 have a multidomain structure consisting of an N-terminal VHS (Vps27/Hrs/Stam) domain, a GAT (GGA and TOM) domain, a largely unstructured hinge region that contains clathrin-binding motifs, and a C-terminal GAE (gamma-adaptin ear homology) domain.

GAT domain found in eukaryotic GGAs, metazoan Tom1-like proteins, metazoan STAMs, fungal Vps27, and similar proteins; The GAT (GGA and Tom1) domain superfamily includes the canonical GAT domain found in ADP-ribosylation factor (Arf)-binding proteins (GGAs) from eukaryotes, myb protein 1 (Tom1)-like proteins from metazoa, and LAS seventeen-binding protein 5 (Lsb5p)-like proteins from fungi. The canonical GAT domain is a monomeric three-helix bundle that binds ubiquitin. GGAs, also called Golgi-localized gamma-ear-containing Arf-binding proteins, belong to a family of ubiquitously expressed, monomeric, motif-binding cargo/clathrin adaptor proteins that regulate clathrin-mediated trafficking of cargo proteins from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to endosomes. GGAs play important roles in ubiquitin-dependent sorting of cargo proteins both in biosynthetic and endocytic pathways. Tom1 and its related proteins, Tom1L1 and Tom1L2, form a protein family sharing an N-terminal VHS-domain followed by a GAT domain. Tom1 family proteins bind to ubiquitin, ubiquitinated proteins, and Toll-interacting protein (Tollip) through its GAT domain. They do not associate with either Arf GTPases through its GAT domain nor with acidic cluster-dileucine sequences through its VHS domain. The GAT domain superfamily also includes the non-canonical GAT domain found in several components of the ESCRT-0 complex, including signal transducing adapter molecules (STAMs) and hepatocyte growth factor-regulated tyrosine kinase substrate (Hrs) from metazoa, as well as vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 27 (Vps27) and class E vacuolar protein-sorting machinery protein Hse1 from fungi. Hrs, together with STAM, forms a Hrs/STAM core complex. Vps27, together with Hse1, forms a Vps27/Hse1 core complex. Those complexes consist of two intertwined GAT domains, each consisting of two helices from one subunit, and one from the other subunit. The intertwined GAT heterodimer acts as a scaffold for binding of ubiquitinated cargo proteins and coordinating ubiquitination and deubiquitination reactions that regulate sorting.

VHS (Vps27/Hrs/STAM) domain of ADP-ribosylation factor-binding protein GGA3; ADP-ribosylation factor-binding protein GGA3 (Golgi-localized, Gamma-ear-containing, Arf-binding 3) regulates the trafficking and is required for the lysosomal degradation of BACE (beta-site APP-cleaving enzyme), the protease that initiates the production of beta-amyloid, which causes Alzheimer's disease. It also plays a key role in GABA (+) transmission, which is important in the regulation of anxiety-like behaviors. GGA3 is a member of the GGA subfamily, which is comprised of ubiquitously expressed, monomeric, motif-binding cargo/clathrin adaptor proteins involved in membrane trafficking between the Trans-Golgi Network (TGN) and endosomes. The VHS domain has a superhelical structure similar to the structure of the ARM (Armadillo) repeats and is present at the N-termini of proteins. GGA proteins have a multidomain structure consisting of an N-terminal VHS domain linked by a short proline-rich linker to a GAT (GGA and TOM) domain, which is followed by a long flexible linker to the C-terminal appendage, GAE (Gamma-Adaptin Ear) domain. The VHS domain of GGA proteins binds to the acidic-cluster dileucine (DxxLL) motif found on the cytoplasmic tails of cargo proteins trafficked between the Trans-Golgi Network and the endosomal system.

In contrast to GGA proteins, members in this family do not have either a GAE (gamma-adaptin ear homology) domain or a clathrin-binding motif. The canonical GAT domain is a monomeric three-helix bundle that binds ubiquitin.

canonical GAT domain found in target of Myb-like protein 1 (Tom1L1); Tom1L1, also called Src-activating and signaling molecule protein (Srcasm), was identified as a substrate of the Src family of protein kinases. It is tyrosine-phosphorylated by Src family kinases and modulates growth factor and Src-mediated signaling pathways. It also plays a potential role in endosomal sorting and ligand-stimulated endocytosis of EGF receptors (EGFR). Tom1L1 is predominantly present in the cytosol and can interact with Toll-interacting protein (Tollip), Hrs or TSG101, clathrin, and ubiquitinated proteins. It contains an N-terminal VHS (Vps27p/Hrs/STAM)-domain, a GAT (GGA and TOM1) domain, and a C-terminal clathrin-binding region, both of which are conserved in Golgi-localized gamma ear-containing Arf-binding proteins (GGAs). It interacts with Tollip through their GAT domain and recuits clathrin onto endosomes through their C-terminal region. However, in the C-terminal clathrin-binding region, Tom1 and Tom1L2 are similar to each other, but distinguishable from Tom1L1. The canonical GAT domain is a monomeric three-helix bundle that binds ubiquitin.
