Voltage-sensing phosphatase modulation by a C2 domain [PDF]
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2015 The voltage-sensing phosphatase (VSP) is the first example of an enzyme controlled by changes in membrane potential. VSP has four distinct regions: the transmembrane voltage-sensing domain (VSD), the inter-domain linker, the cytosolic catalytic domain ...

Ring-like oligomers of Synaptotagmins and related C2 domain proteins [PDF]
eLife, 2016 We recently reported that the C2AB portion of Synaptotagmin 1 (Syt1) could self-assemble into Ca2+-sensitive ring-like oligomers on membranes, which could potentially regulate neurotransmitter release.

Structure of Blood Coagulation Factor VIII in Complex With an Anti-C2 Domain Non-Classical, Pathogenic Antibody Inhibitor [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 Factor VIII (fVIII) is a procoagulant protein that binds to activated factor IX (fIXa) on platelet surfaces to form the intrinsic tenase complex. Due to the high immunogenicity of fVIII, generation of antibody inhibitors is a common occurrence in ...

The Cytosolic Phospholipase A2α N-Terminal C2 Domain Binds and Oligomerizes on Membranes with Positive Curvature [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2020 Group IV phospholipase A2α (cPLA2α) regulates the production of prostaglandins and leukotrienes via the formation of arachidonic acid from membrane phospholipids. The targeting and membrane binding of cPLA2α to the Golgi involves the N-terminal C2 domain,

Molecular Analysis of Membrane Targeting by the C2 Domain of the E3 Ubiquitin Ligase Smurf1 [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2020 SMAD ubiquitination regulatory factor 1 (Smurf1) is a Nedd4 family E3 ubiquitin ligase that regulates cell motility, polarity and TGFβ signaling. Smurf1 contains an N-terminal protein kinase C conserved 2 (C2) domain that targets cell membranes and is ...

C2 domain plays critical roles in localization of novel C2 domain-containing protein OsC2DP. [PDF]
Plant Signal Behav, 2019 OsC2DP is a cytosolic protein containing a C2 domain recently identified in rice, which is translocated to the plasma membrane in response to salt stress. Here, we further investigated the subcellular localization of OsC2DP by truncation analysis. In consistent with OsC2DP, OsC2DP1-165 containing C2 domain at the N-terminus was localized to the cytosol.

The Role of C2 Domains in Two Different Phosphatases: PTEN and SHIP2
Membranes, 2023 Phosphatase and tensin homologue (PTEN) and SH2-containing inositol 5′-phosphatase 2 (SHIP2) are structurally and functionally similar. They both consist of a phosphatase (Ptase) domain and an adjacent C2 domain, and both proteins dephosphorylate ...
