Descriptions

Cytohesin-3 (CYTH3) promotes guanine-nucleotide exchange on Arf1 and Arf6. Cytohesins share a modular architecture consisting of heptad repeats, a Sec7 domain with exchange activity for Arf1 and Arf6, a PH domain that binds phosphatidylinositol (PI) polyphosphates, and a C-terminal helix (CtH) that overlaps with a polybasic region (PBR). Cytohesins are autoinhibited by the Sec7-PH linker (252-264) and CtH/PBR (380-399), which obstruct substrate binding. The autoinhibition can be relieved by Arf6-GTP binding in the presence of the PIP3 head group.

7 GO annotations of cellular component

Name Definition
adherens junction A cell-cell junction composed of the epithelial cadherin-catenin complex. The epithelial cadherins, or E-cadherins, of each interacting cell extend through the plasma membrane into the extracellular space and bind to each other. The E-cadherins bind to catenins on the cytoplasmic side of the membrane, where the E-cadherin-catenin complex binds to cytoskeletal components and regulatory and signaling molecules.
bicellular tight junction An occluding cell-cell junction that is composed of a branching network of sealing strands that completely encircles the apical end of each cell in an epithelial sheet; the outer leaflets of the two interacting plasma membranes are seen to be tightly apposed where sealing strands are present. Each sealing strand is composed of a long row of transmembrane adhesion proteins embedded in each of the two interacting plasma membranes.
cytoplasmic side of plasma membrane The leaflet the plasma membrane that faces the cytoplasm and any proteins embedded or anchored in it or attached to its surface.
cytosol The part of the cytoplasm that does not contain organelles but which does contain other particulate matter, such as protein complexes.
extrinsic component of presynaptic membrane The component of the presynaptic membrane consisting of gene products and protein complexes that are loosely bound to one of its surfaces, but not integrated into the hydrophobic region.
neuromuscular junction The junction between the axon of a motor neuron and a muscle fiber. In response to the arrival of action potentials, the presynaptic button releases molecules of neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft. These diffuse across the cleft and transmit the signal to the postsynaptic membrane of the muscle fiber, leading to a change in post-synaptic potential.
plasma membrane The membrane surrounding a cell that separates the cell from its external environment. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and associated proteins.

2 GO annotations of molecular function

Name Definition
guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity Stimulates the exchange of GDP to GTP on a signaling GTPase, changing its conformation to its active form. Guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) act by stimulating the release of guanosine diphosphate (GDP) to allow binding of guanosine triphosphate (GTP), which is more abundant in the cell under normal cellular physiological conditions.
lipid binding Binding to a lipid.

3 GO annotations of biological process

Name Definition
establishment of epithelial cell polarity The specification and formation of anisotropic intracellular organization of an epithelial cell.
presynaptic modulation of chemical synaptic transmission Any process, acting in the presynapse that results in modulation of chemical synaptic transmission.
regulation of ARF protein signal transduction Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of ARF protein signal transduction.
