GIT proteins contain multiple interaction domains that allow interaction with small GTPases (including ARF, Rac, and cdc42), kinases (such as PAK and MEK), the Rho family GEF Pix, and the focal adhesion protein paxillin (reviewed in 1). GIT1 and GIT2 share many of the same properties, but with at least ten distinct, tissue-specific splice variants. GIT2 has been shown to play an important role inhibiting focal adhesion turnover and membrane protrusion (2,3). Focal adhesion localization and paxillin binding of GIT2 is regulated through phosphorylation at one or more tyrosine sites (Tyr286, Tyr392, Tyr592) by FAK and\/or Src (4,5,reviewed in 6). Once at the focal adhesion, GIT2 is thought to play a key role in cell polarity and migration, making it a protein of interest in the investigation of oncogenic signaling pathways (3,5,7).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nARF GAP GIT2; ARF GTPase-activating protein GIT2; CAT-2; CAT2; cool-associated, tyrosine phosphorylated protein 2; Cool-interacting tyrosine-phosphorylated protein 2; DKFZp686G01261; G protein-coupled receptor kinase interacting ArfGAP 2; G protein-coupled receptor kinase interactor 2; G protein-coupled receptor kinase-interactor 2; GIT ArfGAP 2; GIT2; GRK-interacting protein 2; KIAA0148; MGC760; Paxillin kinase linker; PKL\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 85\nSOURCE: Rabbit","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799862235305,"sku":"6953S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-6953s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
