Transcripts of dematin are widely distributed including human brain, heart, lung, skeletal muscle, and kidney. In vitro, dematin binds and bundles actin filaments in a phosphorylation-dependent manner. The primary structure of dematin consists of a C-terminal domain homologous to the 'headpiece' domain of villin, an actin-binding protein of the brush border cytoskeleton. Except filamentous actin, no other binding partners of dematin have been identified. To investigate the physiological function of dematin, we employed the yeast two-hybrid assay to identify dematin-interacting proteins in the adult human brain. Here, we show that dematin interacts with the guanine nucleotide exchange factor Ras-GRF2 by yeast two-hybrid assay, and this interaction is further confirmed by blot overlay, surface plasmon resonance, co-transfection, and co-immunoprecipitation assays. Human Ras-GRF2 is expressed in a variety of tissues and, similar to other guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs), displays anchorage independent growth in soft agar. Co-transfection and immunoblotting experiments revealed that dematin blocks transcriptional activation of Jun by Ras-GRF2 and activates ERK1 via a Ras-GRF2 independent pathway. Because much of the present evidence has centered on the identification of the Rho family of GTPases as key regulators of the actin cytoskeleton, the direct association between dematin and Ras-GRF2 may provide an alternate mechanism for regulating the activation of Rac and Ras GTPases via the actin cytoskeleton."xsd:string |
