PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

STRUCTURE

motifs/domains

a GYF domain, conserved eukaryotic adaptor domain that recognize proline-rich sequences, interact with the GRB10 proline-rich region, and bind AGO2

HOMOLOGY

CATEGORY

regulatory

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	plasma membrane,junction
	intracellular
	intracellular,cytoplasm

basic FUNCTION	may acting cooperatively with GRB10 to regulate receptor signaling
	EIF4E2-GIGYF2 are a cofactor in translational repression and mRNA decay by ZFP36
	upon tethering to a reporter mRNA, GIGYF2 exhibits strong, dose-dependent silencing activity, involving both mRNA destabilization and translational repression

INTERACTION

DNA

RNA

small molecule

protein	linked to IGF-I receptors by the GRB10 adapter protein following IGF-I stimulation
	GIGYF2 directly interacts with EIF4E2, and this interaction is required for stabilization of both proteins
	AGO2 interacting with GIGYF2 through the GYF domain
