Abstract: | Uptake of circulating glucose into the cells happens via the insulin- mediated signalling pathway, which translocates the glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) vesicles from the intracellular compartment to the plasma membrane. Rab?GTPases are involved in this vesicle trafficking, where Rab?GTPase-activating proteins (RabGAP) enhance the GTP to GDP hydrolysis. TBC1D4 (AS160) and TBC1D1 are functional RabGAPs in the adipocytes and the skeletonal myocytes, respectively. These proteins contain two phosphotyrosine-binding domains (PTBs) at the amino-terminus of the catalytic RabGAP domain. The second PTB has been shown to interact with the cytoplasmic region of the insulin-regulated aminopeptidase (IRAP) of the GLUT4 vesicle. In this study, we quantitatively measured the ~μM affinity (KD) between TBC1D4 PTB and IRAP using isothermal titration calorimetry, and further showed that IRAP residues 1-49 are the major region mediating this interaction. We also demonstrated that the IRAP residues 1-15 are necessary but not sufficient for the PTB interaction. |
