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 is localized to focal adhesions, cytoplasmic complexes and membrane protrusions, and regulates cell protrusion formation and migration (2). GIT1 has also been implicated in neuronal functions including synapse formation (3) and the pathology of Huntington's disease (HD) (4). HD is a genetic neurodegenerative condition involving a mutation in the gene encoding the protein huntingtin. Huntingtin is ubiquitinated and degraded in human HD brains (5). Huntingtin interacts directly with GIT1, causing enhanced proteolysis and indicating that GIT1 distribution and function may contribute to HD pathology (4).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nARF GAP GIT1; ARF GTPase-activating protein GIT1; CAT-1; CAT1; Cool-associated and tyrosine-phosphorylated protein 1; G protein-coupled receptor kinase interacting ArfGAP 1; G protein-coupled receptor kinase interactor 1; G protein-coupled receptor kinase-interactor 1; GIT ArfGAP 1; GIT1; GRK-interacting protein 1\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 95\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800020668585,"sku":"92838S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-92838s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
