Endocytosis: EH domains lend a hand
نویسنده
چکیده
A number of proteins that have been implicated in endocytosis feature a conserved protein-interaction module known as an EH domain. The three-dimensional structure of an EH domain has recently been solved, and is likely to presage significant advances in understanding molecular mechanisms of endocytosis.

Regulation of clathrin coat assembly by Eps15 homology domain–mediated interactions during endocytosis
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis involves a coordinated series of molecular events regulated by interactions among a variety of proteins and lipids through specific domains. One such domain is the Eps15 homology (EH) domain, a highly conserved protein-protein interaction domain present in a number of proteins distributed from yeast to mammals. Several lines of evidence suggest that the yeast EH do...
متن کاملA novel EH domain protein of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Ede1p, involved in endocytosis.
Sequencing of the entire genome of S. cerevisiae has revealed the existence of five proteins containing EH domains. These are protein-protein interaction modules first described in mammalian Eps15, a protein that is involved in clathrin-dependent endocytosis. Two of the yeast proteins, End3p and Pan1p, are required for the internalization step of endocytosis. We report characterization of the n...
متن کاملThe Coiled-Coil Domain of EHD2 Mediates Inhibition of LeEix2 Endocytosis and Signaling
Endocytosis has been suggested to be crucial for the induction of plant immunity in several cases. We have previously shown that two Arabidopsis proteins, AtEHD1 and AtEHD2, are involved in endocytosis in plant systems. AtEHD2 has an inhibitory effect on endocytosis of transferrin, FM-4-64, and LeEix2. There are many works in mammalian systems detailing the importance of the various domains in ...
متن کاملPan1p, Yeast eps15, Functions as a Multivalent Adaptor That Coordinates Protein–Protein Interactions Essential for Endocytosis
A genetic screen for factors required for endocytosis in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae previously identified PAN1. Pan1p is a homologue of the mammalian protein eps15, which has been implicated in endocytosis by virtue of its association with the plasma membrane clathrin adaptor complex AP-2. Pan1p contains two eps15 homology (EH) domains, a protein-protein interaction motif also p...
متن کاملEHD1 Functions in Endosomal Recycling and Confers Salt Tolerance
Endocytosis is a crucial process in all eukaryotic organisms including plants. We have previously shown that two Arabidopsis proteins, AtEHD1 and AtEHD2, are involved in endocytosis in plant systems. Knock-down of EHD1 was shown to have a delayed recycling phenotype in mammalians. There are many works in mammalian systems detailing the importance of the various domains in EHDs but, to date, the...
