Disease
GGYF2_HUMAN Young adult-onset Parkinsonism. Disease susceptibility may be associated with variations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Its association with Parkinson disease is however unclear. According to a number of studies, variations affecting this gene are not a frequent cause of Parkinson disease, suggesting that GIGYF2 does not play a major role in Parkinson disease etiology (PubMed:19279319, PubMed:19429085, PubMed:19638301, PubMed:19482505, PubMed:20004041, PubMed:19321232, PubMed:20060621).[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]
Function
GGYF2_HUMAN Key component of the 4EHP-GYF2 complex, a multiprotein complex that acts as a repressor of translation initiation (PubMed:22751931). In 4EHP-GYF2 the complex, acts as a factor that bridges EIF4E2 to ZFP36/TTP, linking translation repression with mRNA decay (By similarity). May act cooperatively with GRB10 to regulate tyrosine kinase receptor signaling, including IGF1 and insulin receptors (PubMed:12771153).[UniProtKB:Q6Y7W8][8] [9]
Publication Abstract from PubMed
The GIGYF proteins interact with 4EHP and RNA-associated proteins to elicit transcript-specific translational repression. However, the mechanism by which the GIGYF1/2-4EHP complex is recruited to its target transcripts remain unclear. Here we report the crystal structures of the GYF domains from GIGYF1 and GIGYF2 in complex with proline-rich sequences from miRISC-binding proteins TNRC6C and TNRC6A, respectively. The TNRC6 proline-rich motifs bind to a conserved array of aromatic residues on the surface of the GIGYF1/2 GYF domain, thereby bridging 4EHP to Argonaute-miRNA complexes. Our structures also reveal a phenylalanine residue conserved from yeast to human GYF domains that contributes to GIGYF2 thermostability. The molecular details we outline here are likely to be conserved between GIGYF1/2 and other RNA-binding proteins to elicit 4EHP-mediated repression in different biological contexts.
