Human Oxysterol binding protein related protein 9 Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain; Human ORP9 is proposed to function in regulation of Akt phosphorylation. ORP9 has 2 forms, a long (ORP9L) and a short (ORP9S). ORP9L contains an N-terminal PH domain, a FFAT motif (two phenylalanines in an acidic tract), and a C-terminal OSBP-related domain. ORP1S is truncated and contains a FFAT motif and an OSBP-related domain. Oxysterol binding proteins are a multigene family that is conserved in yeast, flies, worms, mammals and plants. In general OSBPs and ORPs have been found to be involved in the transport and metabolism of cholesterol and related lipids in eukaryotes. They all contain a C-terminal oxysterol binding domain, and most contain an N-terminal PH domain. OSBP PH domains bind to membrane phosphoinositides and thus likely play an important role in intracellular targeting. They are members of the oxysterol binding protein (OSBP) family which includes OSBP, OSBP-related proteins (ORP), Goodpasture antigen binding protein (GPBP), and Four phosphate adaptor protein 1 (FAPP1). They have a wide range of purported functions including sterol transport, cell cycle control, pollen development and vessicle transport from Golgi recognize both PI lipids and ARF proteins. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized. Less than 10% of PH domains bind phosphoinositide phosphates (PIPs) with high affinity and specificity. PH domains are distinguished from other PIP-binding domains by their specific high-affinity binding to PIPs with two vicinal phosphate groups: PtdIns(3,4)P2, PtdIns(4,5)P2 or PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 which results in targeting some PH domain proteins to the plasma membrane. A few display strong specificity in lipid binding. Any specificity is usually determined by loop regions or insertions in the N-terminus of the domain, which are not conserved across all PH domains. PH domains are found in cellular signaling proteins such as serine/threonine kinase, tyrosine kinases, regulators of G-proteins, endocytotic GTPases, adaptors, as well as cytoskeletal associated molecules and in lipid associated enzymes.

Human Oxysterol binding protein and OSBP-related protein 4 Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain; Human OSBP is proposed to function is sterol-dependent regulation of ERK dephosphorylation and sphingomyelin synthesis as well as modulation of insulin signaling and hepatic lipogenesis. It contains a N-terminal PH domain, a FFAT motif (two phenylalanines in an acidic tract), and a C-terminal OSBP-related domain. OSBPs and Osh1p PH domains specifically localize to the Golgi apparatus in a PtdIns4P-dependent manner. ORP4 is proposed to function in Vimentin-dependent sterol transport and/or signaling. Human ORP4 has 2 forms, a long (ORP4L) and a short (ORP4S). ORP4L contains a N-terminal PH domain, a FFAT motif (two phenylalanines in an acidic tract), and a C-terminal OSBP-related domain.

Four phosphate adaptor protein 1 and 2 Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain; Human FAPP1 (also called PLEKHA3/Pleckstrin homology domain-containing, family A member 3) regulates secretory transport from the trans-Golgi network to the plasma membrane. It is recruited through binding of PH domain to phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns(4)P) and a small GTPase ADP-ribosylation factor 1 (ARF1). These two binding sites have little overlap the FAPP1 PH domain to associate with both ligands simultaneously and independently. FAPP1 has a N-terminal PH domain followed by a short proline-rich region. FAPP1 is a member of the oxysterol binding protein (OSBP) family which includes OSBP, OSBP-related proteins (ORP), and Goodpasture antigen binding protein (GPBP). They have a wide range of purported functions including sterol transport, cell cycle control, pollen development and vessicle transport from Golgi recognize both PI lipids and ARF proteins. FAPP2 (also called PLEKHA8/Pleckstrin homology domain-containing, family A member 8), a member of the Glycolipid lipid transfer protein(GLTP) family has an N-terminal PH domain that targets the TGN and C-terminal GLTP domain. FAPP2 functions to traffic glucosylceramide (GlcCer) which is made in the Golgi. It's interaction with vesicle-associated membrane protein-associated protein (VAP) could be a means of regulation. Some FAPP2s share the FFAT-like motifs found in GLTP. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized. Less than 10% of PH domains bind phosphoinositide phosphates (PIPs) with high affinity and specificity.

Pleckstrin homology domain; Domain commonly found in eukaryotic signalling proteins. The domain family possesses multiple functions including the abilities to bind inositol phosphates, and various proteins. PH domains have been found to possess inserted domains (such as in PLC gamma, syntrophins) and to be inserted within other domains. Mutations in Brutons tyrosine kinase (Btk) within its PH domain cause X-linked agammaglobulinaemia (XLA) in patients. Point mutations cluster into the positively charged end of the molecule around the predicted binding site for phosphatidylinositol lipids.

TBC1 domain family member 2A pleckstrin homology (PH) domain; TBC1D2A (also called PARIS-1/Prostate antigen recognized and identified by SEREX 1 and ARMUS) contains a PH domain and a TBC-type GTPase catalytic domain. TBC1D2A integrates signaling between Arf6, Rac1, and Rab7 during junction disassembly. Activated Rac1 recruits TBC1D2A to locally inactivate Rab7 via its C-terminal TBC/RabGAP domain and facilitate E-cadherin degradation in lysosomes. The TBC1D2A PH domain mediates localization at cell-cell contacts and coprecipitates with cadherin complexes. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized. Less than 10% of PH domains bind phosphoinositide phosphates (PIPs) with high affinity and specificity.

Cryptosporidium-like Oxysterol binding protein related protein 2 Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain; There are 2 types of ORPs found in Cryptosporidium: CpORP1 and CpORP2. Cryptosporium differs from other apicomplexans like Plasmodium, Toxoplasma, and Eimeria which possess only a single long-type ORP consisting of an N-terminal PH domain followed by a C-terminal ligand binding (LB) domain. CpORP2 is like this, but CpORP1 differs and has a truncated N-terminus resulting in only having a LB domain present. The exact functions of these proteins are largely unknown though CpORP1 is thought to be involved in lipid transport across the parasitophorous vacuole membrane. Oxysterol binding proteins are a multigene family that is conserved in yeast, flies, worms, mammals and plants. In general OSBPs and ORPs have been found to be involved in the transport and metabolism of cholesterol and related lipids in eukaryotes. They all contain a C-terminal oxysterol binding domain, and most contain an N-terminal PH domain. OSBP PH domains bind to membrane phosphoinositides and thus likely play an important role in intracellular targeting. They are members of the oxysterol binding protein (OSBP) family which includes OSBP, OSBP-related proteins (ORP), Goodpasture antigen binding protein (GPBP), and Four phosphate adaptor protein 1 (FAPP1). They have a wide range of purported functions including sterol transport, cell cycle control, pollen development and vessicle transport from Golgi recognize both PI lipids and ARF proteins. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner.

Yeast oxysterol binding protein homolog 3 Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain; Yeast Osh3p is proposed to function in sterol transport and regulation of nuclear fusion during mating and of pseudohyphal growth as well as sphingolipid metabolism. Osh3 contains a N-GOLD (Golgi dynamics) domain, a PH domain, a FFAT motif (two phenylalanines in an acidic tract), and a C-terminal OSBP-related domain. GOLD domains are thought to mediate protein-protein interactions, but their role in ORPs are unknown. Oxysterol binding proteins are a multigene family that is conserved in yeast, flies, worms, mammals and plants. In general OSBPs and ORPs have been found to be involved in the transport and metabolism of cholesterol and related lipids in eukaryotes. They all contain a C-terminal oxysterol binding domain, and most contain an N-terminal PH domain.

They are members of the oxysterol binding protein (OSBP) family which includes OSBP, OSBP-related proteins (ORP), Goodpasture antigen binding protein (GPBP), and Four phosphate adaptor protein 1 (FAPP1). They have a wide range of purported functions including sterol transport, cell cycle control, pollen development and vessicle transport from Golgi recognize both PI lipids and ARF proteins. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized. Less than 10% of PH domains bind phosphoinositide phosphates (PIPs) with high affinity and specificity. PH domains are distinguished from other PIP-binding domains by their specific high-affinity binding to PIPs with two vicinal phosphate groups: PtdIns(3,4)P2, PtdIns(4,5)P2 or PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 which results in targeting some PH domain proteins to the plasma membrane. A few display strong specificity in lipid binding. Any specificity is usually determined by loop regions or insertions in the N-terminus of the domain, which are not conserved across all PH domains. PH domains are found in cellular signaling proteins such as serine/threonine kinase, tyrosine kinases, regulators of G-proteins, endocytotic GTPases, adaptors, as well as cytoskeletal associated molecules and in lipid associated enzymes.

ArfGAP with RhoGAP domain, ankyrin repeat and PH domain Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, repeat 1; ARAP proteins (also called centaurin delta) are phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate-dependent GTPase-activating proteins that modulate actin cytoskeleton remodeling by regulating ARF and RHO family members. They bind phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) and phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P2) binding. There are 3 mammalian ARAP proteins: ARAP1, ARAP2, and ARAP3. All ARAP proteins contain a N-terminal SAM (sterile alpha motif) domain, 5 PH domains, an ArfGAP domain, 2 ankyrin domain, A RhoGap domain, and a Ras-associating domain. This hierarchy contains the first PH domain in ARAP. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized. Less than 10% of PH domains bind phosphoinositide phosphates (PIPs) with high affinity and specificity.

FYVE, RhoGEF and PH domain containing/faciogenital dysplasia protein 4 pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, C-terminus, in insect and related arthropods; In general, FGDs have a RhoGEF (DH) domain, followed by an N-terminal PH domain, a FYVE domain and a C-terminal PH domain. All FGDs are guanine nucleotide exchange factors that activates the Rho GTPase Cdc42, an important regulator of membrane trafficking. The RhoGEF domain is responsible for GEF catalytic activity, while the N-terminal PH domain is involved in intracellular targeting of the DH domain. FGD4 is one of the genes associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy type 4 (CMT4), a group of progressive motor and sensory axonal and demyelinating neuropathies that are distinguished from other forms of CMT by autosomal recessive inheritance. Those affected have distal muscle weakness and atrophy associated with sensory loss and, frequently, pes cavus foot deformity. This cd contains insects, crustaceans, and chelicerates. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized. Less than 10% of PH domains bind phosphoinositide phosphates (PIPs) with high affinity and specificity.

Sesquipedalian family Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain; The sesquipedalian family has 2 mammalian members: Ses1 and Ses2, which are also callled 7 kDa inositol polyphosphate phosphatase-interacting protein 1 and 2. They play a role in endocytic trafficking and are required for receptor recycling from endosomes, both to the trans-Golgi network and the plasma membrane. Members of this family form homodimers and heterodimers. Sesquipedalian interacts with inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase OCRL-1 (INPP5F) also known as Lowe oculocerebrorenal syndrome protein, a phosphatase enzyme that is involved in actin polymerization and is found in the trans-Golgi network and INPP5B. Sesquipedalian contains a single PH domain. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized. Less than 10% of PH domains bind phosphoinositide phosphates (PIPs) with high affinity and specificity.

Arabidopsis thaliana Pleckstrin homolog (PH) 1 (AtPH1) PH domain; AtPH1 is expressed in all plant tissue and is proposed to be the plant homolog of human pleckstrin. Pleckstrin consists of two PH domains separated by a linker region, while AtPH has a single PH domain with a short N-terminal extension. AtPH1 binds PtdIns3P specifically and is thought to be an adaptor molecule since it has no obvious catalytic functions. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized. Less than 10% of PH domains bind phosphoinositide phosphates (PIPs) with high affinity and specificity.

Rho GTPase activating protein 2 Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain; RhoGAP2 (also called RhoGap22 or ArhGap22) are involved in cell polarity, cell morphology and cytoskeletal organization. They activate a GTPase belonging to the RAS superfamily of small GTP-binding proteins. The encoded protein is insulin-responsive, is dependent on the kinase Akt, and requires the Akt-dependent 14-3-3 binding protein which binds sequentially to two serine residues resulting in regulation of cell motility. Members here contain an N-terminal PH domain followed by a RhoGAP domain and either a BAR or TATA Binding Protein (TBP) Associated Factor 4 (TAF4) domain. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized. Less than 10% of PH domains bind phosphoinositide phosphates (PIPs) with high affinity and specificity.

Rho GTPase activating protein 25 and related proteins Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain; RhoGAP25 (also called ArhGap25) like other RhoGaps are involved in cell polarity, cell morphology and cytoskeletal organization. They act as GTPase activators for the Rac-type GTPases by converting them to an inactive GDP-bound state and control actin remodeling by inactivating Rac downstream of Rho leading to suppress leading edge protrusion and promotes cell retraction to achieve cellular polarity and are able to suppress RAC1 and CDC42 activity in vitro. Overexpression of these proteins induces cell rounding with partial or complete disruption of actin stress fibers and formation of membrane ruffles, lamellipodia, and filopodia. This hierarchy contains RhoGAP22, RhoGAP24, and RhoGAP25. Members here contain an N-terminal PH domain followed by a RhoGAP domain and either a BAR or TATA Binding Protein (TBP) Associated Factor 4 (TAF4) domain.

TAPP2 contains two sequential PH domains in which the C-terminal PH domain specifically binds PtdIns(3,4)P2 with high affinity. The N-terminal PH domain does not interact with any phosphoinositide tested. They also contain a C-terminal PDZ-binding motif that interacts with several PDZ-binding proteins, including PTPN13 (known previously as PTPL1 or FAP-1) as well as the scaffolding proteins MUPP1 (multiple PDZ-domain-containing protein 1), syntrophin and utrophin. The members here are most sequence similar to TAPP2 proteins, but may not be actual TAPP2 proteins. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized.

They also contain a C-terminal PDZ-binding motif that interacts with several PDZ-binding proteins, including PTPN13 (known previously as PTPL1 or FAP-1) as well as the scaffolding proteins MUPP1 (multiple PDZ-domain-containing protein 1), syntrophin and utrophin. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized. Less than 10% of PH domains bind phosphoinositide phosphates (PIPs) with high affinity and specificity. PH domains are distinguished from other PIP-binding domains by their specific high-affinity binding to PIPs with two vicinal phosphate groups: PtdIns(3,4)P2, PtdIns(4,5)P2 or PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 which results in targeting some PH domain proteins to the plasma membrane. A few display strong specificity in lipid binding. Any specificity is usually determined by loop regions or insertions in the N-terminus of the domain, which are not conserved across all PH domains. PH domains are found in cellular signaling proteins such as serine/threonine kinase, tyrosine kinases, regulators of G-proteins, endocytotic GTPases, adaptors, as well as cytoskeletal associated molecules and in lipid associated enzymes.

Arf-GAP with GTPase, ANK repeat and PH domain-containing protein Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain; AGAP (also called centaurin gamma; PIKE/Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase enhancer) reside mainly in the nucleus and are known to activate phosphoinositide 3-kinase, a key regulator of cell proliferation, motility and vesicular trafficking. There are 3 isoforms of AGAP (PIKE-A, PIKE-L, and PIKE-S) the longest of which PIKE-L consists of N-terminal proline rich domains (PRDs), followed by a GTPase domain, a split PH domain (PHN and PHC), an ArfGAP domain and two ankyrin repeats. PIKE-S terminates after the PHN domain and PIKE-A is missing the PRD region. Centaurin binds phosphatidlyinositol (3,4,5)P3. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized. Less than 10% of PH domains bind phosphoinositide phosphates (PIPs) with high affinity and specificity.

Myosin X-like Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, repeat 3; MyoX, a MyTH-FERM myosin, is a molecular motor that has crucial functions in the transport and/or tethering of integrins in the actin-based extensions known as filopodia, microtubule binding, and in netrin-mediated axon guidance. It functions as a dimer. MyoX walks on bundles of actin, rather than single filaments, unlike the other unconventional myosins. MyoX is present in organisms ranging from humans to choanoflagellates, but not in Drosophila and Caenorhabditis elegans.MyoX consists of a N-terminal motor/head region, a neck made of 3 IQ motifs, and a tail consisting of a coiled-coil domain, a PEST region, 3 PH domains, a myosin tail homology 4 (MyTH4), and a FERM domain at its very C-terminus. The first PH domain in the MyoX tail is a split-PH domain, interupted by the second PH domain such that PH 1a and PH 1b flanks PH 2. The third PH domain (PH 3) follows the PH 1b domain. This cd contains the third MyoX PH repeat. PLEKHH3/Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain containing, family H (with MyTH4 domain) member 3 is also part of this CD and like MyoX contains a FERM domain, a MyTH4 domain, and a single PH domain. Not much is known about the function of PLEKHH3. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized. Less than 10% of PH domains bind phosphoinositide phosphates (PIPs) with high affinity and specificity.

FYVE, RhoGEF and PH domain containing/faciogenital dysplasia protein 3, N-terminal Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain; In general, FGDs have a RhoGEF (DH) domain, followed by an N-terminal PH domain, a FYVE domain and a C-terminal PH domain. All FGDs are guanine nucleotide exchange factors that activates the Rho GTPase Cdc42, an important regulator of membrane trafficking. The RhoGEF domain is responsible for GEF catalytic activity, while the N-terminal PH domain is involved in intracellular targeting of the DH domain. Both FGD1 and FGD3 are targeted by the ubiquitin ligase SCF(FWD1/beta-TrCP) upon phosphorylation of two serine residues in its DSGIDS motif and subsequently degraded by the proteasome. However, FGD1 and FGD3 induced significantly different morphological changes in HeLa Tet-Off cells and while FGD1 induced long finger-like protrusions, FGD3 induced broad sheet-like protrusions when the level of GTP-bound Cdc42 was significantly increased by the inducible expression of FGD3. They also reciprocally regulated cell motility in inducibly expressed in HeLa Tet-Off cells, FGD1 stimulated cell migration while FGD3 inhibited it. FGD1 and FGD3 therefore play different roles to regulate cellular functions, even though their intracellular levels are tightly controlled by the same destruction pathway through SCF(FWD1/beta-TrCP). PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized. Less than 10% of PH domains bind phosphoinositide phosphates (PIPs) with high affinity and specificity.

Pleckstrin 2 Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, repeat 1; Pleckstrin is a protein found in platelets. This name is derived from platelet and leukocyte C kinase substrate and the KSTR string of amino acids. Pleckstrin 2 contains two PH domains and a DEP (dishvelled, egl-10, and pleckstrin) domain. Unlike pleckstrin 1, pleckstrin 2 does not contain obvious sites of PKC phosphorylation. Pleckstrin 2 plays a role in actin rearrangement, large lamellipodia and peripheral ruffle formation, and may help orchestrate cytoskeletal arrangement. The PH domains of pleckstrin 2 are thought to contribute to lamellipodia formation. This cd contains the first PH domain repeat. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized.

ArfGAP with dual PH domains Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, repeat 2; ADAP (also called centaurin alpha) is a phophatidlyinositide binding protein consisting of an N-terminal ArfGAP domain and two PH domains. In response to growth factor activation, PI3K phosphorylates phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate to phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate. Centaurin alpha 1 is recruited to the plasma membrane following growth factor stimulation by specific binding of its PH domain to phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate. Centaurin alpha 2 is constitutively bound to the plasma membrane since it binds phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate with equal affinity. This cd contains the second PH domain repeat. PH domains have diverse functions, but in general are involved in targeting proteins to the appropriate cellular location or in the interaction with a binding partner. They share little sequence conservation, but all have a common fold, which is electrostatically polarized. Less than 10% of PH domains bind phosphoinositide phosphates (PIPs) with high affinity and specificity. PH domains are distinguished from other PIP-binding domains by their specific high-affinity binding to PIPs with two vicinal phosphate groups: PtdIns(3,4)P2, PtdIns(4,5)P2 or PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 which results in targeting some PH domain proteins to the plasma membrane. A few display strong specificity in lipid binding. Any specificity is usually determined by loop regions or insertions in the N-terminus of the domain, which are not conserved across all PH domains. PH domains are found in cellular signaling proteins such as serine/threonine kinase, tyrosine kinases, regulators of G-proteins, endocytotic GTPases, adaptors, as well as cytoskeletal associated molecules and in lipid associated enzymes.
