Src Homology 3 domain of Small G protein Signaling Modulator 3 SGSM3 is also called Merlin-associated protein (MAP), RUN and SH3 domain-containing protein (RUSC3), RUN and TBC1 domain-containing protein 3 (RUTBC3), Rab GTPase-activating protein 5 (RabGAP5), or Rab GAP-like protein (RabGAPLP). It is expressed ubiquitously and functions as a regulator of small G protein RAP- and RAB-mediated neuronal signaling. It is involved in modulating NGF-mediated neurite outgrowth and differentiation. It also interacts with the tumor suppressor merlin and may play a role in the merlin-associated suppression of cell growth. SGSM3 contains TBC, SH3, and RUN domains. SH3 domains are protein interaction domains that bind to proline-rich ligands with moderate affinity and selectivity, preferentially to PxxP motifs. They play versatile and diverse roles in the cell including the regulation of enzymes, changing the subcellular localization of signaling pathway components, and mediating the formation of multiprotein complex assemblies. |
