Guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Ras-like GTPases; N-terminal motif; A subset of guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Ras-like small GTPases appear to possess this domain N-terminal to the RasGef (Cdc25-like) domain. The recent crystal structureof Sos shows that this domain is alpha-helical and plays a "purely structural role" (Nature 394, 337-343).

Guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Ras-like small GTPases. Small GTP-binding proteins of the Ras superfamily function as molecular switches in fundamental events such as signal transduction, cytoskeleton dynamics and intracellular trafficking. Guanine-nucleotide-exchange factors (GEFs) positively regulate these GTP-binding proteins in response to a variety of signals. GEFs catalyze the dissociation of GDP from the inactive GTP-binding proteins. GTP can then bind and induce structural changes that allow interaction with effectors.

Guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Ras-like GTPases; N-terminal domain (RasGef_N), also called REM domain (Ras exchanger motif). This domain is common in nucleotide exchange factors for Ras-like small GTPases and is typically found immediately N-terminal to the RasGef (Cdc25-like) domain. REM contacts the GTPase and is assumed to participate in the catalytic activity of the exchange factor. Proteins with the REM domain include Sos1 and Sos2, which relay signals from tyrosine-kinase mediated signalling to Ras, RasGRP1-4, RasGRF1,2, CNrasGEF, and RAP-specific nucleotide exchange factors, to name a few.

Atrophin-1 family; Atrophin-1 is the protein product of the dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA) gene. DRPLA OMIM:125370 is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder. It is caused by the expansion of a CAG repeat in the DRPLA gene on chromosome 12p. This results in an extended polyglutamine region in atrophin-1, that is thought to confer toxicity to the protein, possibly through altering its interactions with other proteins. The expansion of a CAG repeat is also the underlying defect in six other neurodegenerative disorders, including Huntington's disease. One interaction of expanded polyglutamine repeats that is thought to be pathogenic is that with the short glutamine repeat in the transcriptional coactivator CREB binding protein, CBP. This interaction draws CBP away from its usual nuclear location to the expanded polyglutamine repeat protein aggregates that are characteriztic of the polyglutamine neurodegenerative disorders. This interferes with CBP-mediated transcription and causes cytotoxicity.
