A PH Domain with Dual Phospholipid Binding Sites Regulates the ARF GAP, ASAP1

Structure. 2015 Nov 3;23(11):1971-3. doi: 10.1016/j.str.2015.10.002.

Abstract

In this issue of Structure, Jian et al. (2015) report the crystal structures of the apo- and dibutyryl-PI(4,5)P2 bound forms of the PH domain from the ARF GAP, ASAP1. This PH domain has two anionic phospholipid binding sites proposed to work in concert to regulate ASAP1 GAP activity.
