RASGEF1C (Ras-Guanine Nucleotide Exchange Factor 1C) is a human protein coding gene that encodes the ras-GEF domain containing family member 1C protein. Human RASGEF1C functions in activating GTPase via Guanine Nucleotide Exchange and it has been found to be associated with neurodegenerative disorders. The human RASGEF1C gene is a 108,417-base-pair long protein-coding gene located on the minus strand at 5q35.3.[5]

The human RASGEF1C gene has 14 exons and transcribes a 2297-nucleotide mRNA transcript[5].

Protein

[edit]

The human RASGEF1C gene encodes only one protein isoform: ras-GEF domain-containing family member 1C protein[5]. This protein is 466 amino acids in length, and it has been predicted to function as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor.[6]

Without undergoing post-translation modifications, the human RASGEF1C protein is 52.9 kdal.[7]

Secondary Structure

[edit]
The Human RASGEF1C Protein Tertiary Structure with Secondary Structure and Phosphorylation Sites Highlighted. (Green is Beta Sheets, Red is Alpha Helices, and Spheres Represent Phosphorylation Sites).

The human RASGEF1C protein consists of 8 beta sheets and 268 alpha helices.[8]

Expression and Regulation

[edit]

The RASGEF1C gene is ubiquitously expressed across all tissues, with high expression in the brain and salivary glands[5].[9]

In humans, the abundance of the RASGEF1C protein is 0.011 ppm[10]

Cellular Localization

[edit]

The human RASGEF1C protein is localized in the cytoplasm.[11]

Post-Translational Modifications

[edit]
Conceptual Translation of Human RASGEF1C mRNA transcript and protein, highlighting important domains and sites (post-translational modifications, protein binding sites, and SNPs).

The RASGEF1C protein has 11 phosphorylation sites, and one O-glycosylation site.[12] 9 of the phosphorylation sites are at serines and catalyzed by protein kinase C, while the other 2 phosphorylation sites are at lysines and catalyzed by casein kinase II.

Interacting Proteins

[edit]

Human RASGEF1C protein is known to interact with TNK2, a tyrosine kinase non-receptor 2, which functions in inhibiting GTPase[13]

Evolution

[edit]

Human RASGEF1C Protein Paralogs[14][15]

The Human RASGEF1C protein has two paralogs in humans, RASGEF1A and RASGEF1B.

Divergence of RASGEF1C Orthologs, Cytochrome c, and Fibrinogen Alpha from Respective Human Proteins over time in million years ago (MYA).

Human RASGEF1C Protein Divergence Over Time[14][15]

The Human RASGEF1C protein evolved at a slower rate than human fibrinogen alpha, but at a slightly faster rate than cytochrome c over time, having a slow to intermediate rate of evolution over time.

Human RASGEF1C Protein Orthologs[14][15][16]

The Human RASGEF1C protein has orthologs in mammals, marsupials, aves, reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects, and lesser invertebrates. The most distant RASGEF1C ortholog is present in Hood Corals, where divergence of the protein first occured.

Clinical Significance

[edit]

The GCG repeat in the 5'UTR region of the human RASGEF1C gene is known to be naturally selected for during late and on-set neurodegenerative disorders.[17] In addition, the GCG repeat from nucleotide 92 to nucleotide 107 on the 5'UTR is the binding site for the transcription factor Vts1 and the site of a common SNP, resulting in a deletion of the GCG repeat region.[18][19]
