The Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (BAR) domain, a dimerization module that binds membranes and detects membrane curvature; BAR domains are dimerization, lipid binding and curvature sensing modules found in many different proteins with diverse functions including organelle biogenesis, membrane trafficking or remodeling, and cell division and migration. Mutations in BAR containing proteins have been linked to diseases and their inactivation in cells leads to altered membrane dynamics. A BAR domain with an additional N-terminal amphipathic helix (an N-BAR) can drive membrane curvature. These N-BAR domains are found in amphiphysins and endophilins, among others. BAR domains are also frequently found alongside domains that determine lipid specificity, such as the Pleckstrin Homology (PH) and Phox Homology (PX) domains which are present in beta centaurins (ACAPs and ASAPs) and sorting nexins, respectively. A FES-CIP4 Homology (FCH) domain together with a coiled coil region is called the F-BAR domain and is present in Pombe/Cdc15 homology (PCH) family proteins, which include Fes/Fes tyrosine kinases, PACSIN or syndapin, CIP4-like proteins, and srGAPs, among others. The Inverse (I)-BAR or IRSp53/MIM homology Domain (IMD) is found in multi-domain proteins, such as IRSp53 and MIM, that act as scaffolding proteins and transducers of a variety of signaling pathways that link membrane dynamics and the underlying actin cytoskeleton. BAR domains form dimers that bind to membranes, induce membrane bending and curvature, and may also be involved in protein-protein interactions. The I-BAR domain induces membrane protrusions in the opposite direction compared to classical BAR and F-BAR domains, which produce membrane invaginations. BAR domains that also serve as protein interaction domains include those of arfaptin and OPHN1-like proteins, among others, which bind to Rac and Rho GAP domains, respectively.

GTPase Regulator Associated with Focal adhesion and related proteins Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain; This hierarchy contains GRAF family members: OPHN1/oligophrenin1, GRAF1 (also called ARHGAP26/Rho GTPase activating protein 26), GRAF2 (also called ARHGAP10/ARHGAP42), AK057372, and LOC129897, all of which are members of the APPL family. OPHN1 is a RhoGAP involved in X-linked mental retardation, epilepsy, rostral ventricular enlargement, and cerebellar hypoplasia. Affected individuals have morphological abnormalities of their brain with enlargement of the cerebral ventricles and cerebellar hypoplasia. OPHN1 negatively regulates RhoA, Cdc42, and Rac1 in neuronal and non-neuronal cells. GRAF1 sculpts the endocytic membranes of the CLIC/GEEC (clathrin-independent carriers/GPI-enriched early endosomal compartments) endocytic pathway. It strongly interacts with dynamin and inhibition of dynamin abolishes CLIC/GEEC endocytosis. GRAF2, GRAF3 and oligophrenin are likely to play similar roles during clathrin-independent endocytic events. GRAF1 mutations are linked to leukaemia. All members are composed of a N-terminal BAR-PH domain, followed by a RhoGAP domain, a proline rich region, and a C-terminal SH3 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. 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.

The Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (BAR) domain of GTPase Regulator Associated with Focal adhesion 2; BAR domains are dimerization, lipid binding and curvature sensing modules found in many different proteins with diverse functions. GTPase Regulator Associated with Focal adhesion kinase 2 (GRAF2), also called Rho GTPase activating protein 10 (ARHGAP10) or PS-GAP, is a GAP with activity towards Cdc42 and RhoA which regulates caspase-activated p21-activated protein kinase-2 (PAK-2p34). GRAF2 interacts with PAK-2p34, leading to its stabilization and decrease of cell death. It is highly expressed in skeletal muscle and also interacts with PKNbeta, which is a target of Rho. GRAF2 contains an N-terminal BAR domain, followed by a Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, a Rho GAP domain, and a C-terminal SH3 domain. BAR domains form dimers that bind to membranes, induce membrane bending and curvature, and may also be involved in protein-protein interactions. The BAR domain of the related protein GRAF directly interacts with its Rho GAP domain and inhibits its activity. Autoinhibited GRAF is capable of binding membranes and tubulating liposomes, showing that the membrane-tubulation and GAP-inhibitory functions of the BAR domain can occur simultaneously.

BAR domain of APPL family; BAR_12 is the BAR coiled-coil domain at the N-terminus of APPL or adaptor protein containing PH domain, PTB domain, and leucine zipper motif proteins in higher eukaryotes. This BAR domain contains four helices whereas the other classical BAR domains contain only three helices. The first three helices form an antiparallel coiled-coil, while the fourth helix, is unique to APPL1. BAR domains take part in many varied biological processes such as fission of synaptic vesicles, endocytosis, regulation of the actin cytoskeleton, transcriptional repression, cell-cell fusion, apoptosis, secretory vesicle fusion, and tissue differentiation.

It regulates caspase-activated p21-activated protein kinase-2 (PAK-2p34). GRAF2 interacts with PAK-2p34, leading to its stabilization and decrease of cell death. It is highly expressed in skeletal muscle, and is involved in alpha-catenin recruitment at cell-cell junctions. GRAF2 contains an N-terminal BAR domain, followed by a Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, a Rho GAP domain, and a C-terminal SH3 domain. The SH3 domain of GRAF binds PKNbeta, a target of the small GTPase Rho. SH3 domains bind to proline-rich ligands with moderate affinity and selectivity, preferentially to PxxP motifs; they play a role in the regulation of enzymes by intramolecular interactions, changing the subcellular localization of signal pathway components and mediate multiprotein complex assemblies.

The Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (BAR) domain of Oligophrenin1-like Rho GTPase Activating Proteins; BAR domains are dimerization, lipid binding and curvature sensing modules found in many different proteins with diverse functions. This subfamily is composed of Rho and Rac GTPase activating proteins (GAPs) with similarity to oligophrenin1 (OPHN1). Members contain an N-terminal BAR domain, followed by a Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, and a Rho GAP domain. Some members contain a C-terminal SH3 domain. Vertebrates harbor at least three Rho GAPs in this subfamily including OPHN1, GTPase Regulator Associated with Focal adhesion kinase (GRAF), GRAF2, and an uncharacterized protein called GAP10-like. OPHN1, GRAF and GRAF2 show GAP activity towards RhoA and Cdc42. In addition, OPHN1 is active towards Rac. BAR domains form dimers that bind to membranes, induce membrane bending and curvature, and may also be involved in protein-protein interactions. The BAR domains of OPHN1 and GRAF directly interact with their Rho GAP domains and inhibit their activity.

The Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (BAR) domain of GTPase Regulator Associated with Focal adhesion kinase; BAR domains are dimerization, lipid binding and curvature sensing modules found in many different proteins with diverse functions. GTPase Regulator Associated with Focal adhesion kinase (GRAF), also called Rho GTPase activating protein 26 (ARHGAP26), is a GAP with activity towards RhoA and Cdc42 and is only weakly active towards Rac1. It influences Rho-mediated cytoskeletal rearrangements and binds focal adhesion kinase (FAK), which is a critical component of integrin signaling. GRAF contains an N-terminal BAR domain, followed by a Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, a Rho GAP domain, and a C-terminal SH3 domain. BAR domains form dimers that bind to membranes, induce membrane bending and curvature, and may also be involved in protein-protein interactions. The BAR domain of GRAF directly interacts with its Rho GAP domain and inhibits its activity. Autoinhibited GRAF is capable of binding membranes and tubulating liposomes, showing that the membrane-tubulation and GAP-inhibitory functions of the BAR domain can occur simultaneously.

The Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (BAR) domain of Oligophrenin-1; BAR domains are dimerization, lipid binding and curvature sensing modules found in many different proteins with diverse functions. Oligophrenin-1 (OPHN1) is a GTPase activating protein (GAP) with activity towards RhoA, Rac, and Cdc42, that is expressed in developing spinal cord and in adult brain areas with high plasticity. It plays a role in regulating the actin cystoskeleton as well as morphology changes in axons and dendrites, and may also function in modulating neuronal connectivity. Mutations in the OPHN1 gene causes X-linked mental retardation associated with cerebellar hypoplasia, lateral ventricle enlargement and epilepsy. OPHN1 contains an N-terminal BAR domain, followed by a Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, and a Rho GAP domain. BAR domains form dimers that bind to membranes, induce membrane bending and curvature, and may also be involved in protein-protein interactions.

RhoGAP: GTPase-activator protein (GAP) for Rho-like GTPases; GAPs towards Rho/Rac/Cdc42-like small GTPases. Small GTPases (G proteins) cluster into distinct families, and all act as molecular switches, active in their GTP-bound form but inactive when bound to GDP. The Rho family of small G proteins, which includes Cdc42Hs, activates effectors involved in a wide variety of developmental processes, including regulation of cytoskeleton formation, cell proliferation and the JNK signaling pathway. G proteins generally have a low intrinsic GTPase hydrolytic activity but there are family-specific groups of GAPs that enhance the rate of GTP hydrolysis by several orders of magnitude. The RhoGAPs are one of the major classes of regulators of Rho G proteins.

Src Homology 3 domain of GTPase Regulator Associated with Focal adhesion kinase and similar proteins; This subfamily is composed of Rho GTPase activating proteins (GAPs) with similarity to GRAF. Members contain an N-terminal BAR domain, followed by a Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, a Rho GAP domain, and a C-terminal SH3 domain. Although vertebrates harbor four Rho GAPs in the GRAF subfamily including GRAF, GRAF2, GRAF3, and Oligophrenin-1 (OPHN1), only three are included in this model. OPHN1 contains the BAR, PH and GAP domains, but not the C-terminal SH3 domain. GRAF and GRAF2 show GAP activity towards RhoA and Cdc42. GRAF influences Rho-mediated cytoskeletal rearrangements and binds focal adhesion kinase. GRAF2 regulates caspase-activated p21-activated protein kinase-2. The SH3 domain of GRAF and GRAF2 binds PKNbeta, a target of the small GTPase Rho. SH3 domains bind to proline-rich ligands with moderate affinity and selectivity, preferentially to PxxP motifs; they play a role in the regulation of enzymes by intramolecular interactions, changing the subcellular localization of signal pathway components and mediate multiprotein complex assemblies.

RhoGAP_GMIP: RhoGAP (GTPase-activator protein [GAP] for Rho-like small GTPases) domain of GMIP (Gem interacting protein). GMIP plays important roles in neurite growth and axonal guidance, and interacts with Gem, a member of the RGK subfamily of the Ras small GTPase superfamily, through the N-terminal half of the protein. GMIP contains a C-terminal RhoGAP domain. GMIP inhibits RhoA function, but is inactive towards Rac1 and Cdc41. Small GTPases cluster into distinct families, and all act as molecular switches, active in their GTP-bound form but inactive when GDP-bound. The Rho family of GTPases activates effectors involved in a wide variety of developmental processes, including regulation of cytoskeleton formation, cell proliferation and the JNK signaling pathway. GTPases generally have a low intrinsic GTPase hydrolytic activity but there are family-specific groups of GAPs that enhance the rate of GTP hydrolysis by several orders of magnitude.
