. "FUNCTION: GTPase-activating protein (GAP) for ARF1 and ARF5, which also shows strong GTPase activity. Isoform 1 participates in the prevention of neuronal apoptosis by enhancing PI3 kinase activity. It aids the coupling of metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 (GRM1) to cytoplasmic PI3 kinase by interacting with Homer scaffolding proteins, and also seems to mediate anti-apoptotic effects of NGF by activating nuclear PI3 kinase. Isoform 2 does not stimulate PI3 kinase but may protect cells from apoptosis by stimulating Akt. It also regulates the adapter protein 1 (AP-1)-dependent trafficking of proteins in the endosomal system. It seems to be oncogenic. It is overexpressed in cancer cells, prevents apoptosis and promotes cancer cell invasion. ENZYME REGULATION: GAP activity is stimulated by phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) and, to a lesser extent, by phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP3). Phosphatidic acid potentiates PIP2 stimulation. SUBUNIT: Isoform 1 interacts with EPB41L1, PLCG1, NF2, HOMER1 and HOMER2 (By similarity). Isoform 2 interacts with activated AKT1 in the presence of guanine nucleotides, and with the AP-1 complex. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Isoform 1: Cytoplasm. Nucleus. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Isoform 2: Cytoplasm. ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS: Event=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=2; Name=1; Synonyms=PIKE-L; IsoId=Q99490-1; Sequence=Displayed; Name=2; Synonyms=PIKE-A; IsoId=Q99490-2; Sequence=VSP_018531, VSP_018532, VSP_018533; Note=Phosphorylated by FYN; TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Isoform 1 is brain-specific. Isoform 2 is ubiquitously expressed, with highest levels in brain and heart. DOMAIN: G domain binds GTP and has GTPase activity. DOMAIN: Arf-GAP domain interacts with G domain and may regulate its GTPase activity. DOMAIN: Although both PH domains of isoforms 1 and 2 bind phospholipids, they differently regulate subcellular location. PH domain of isoform 1 directs the protein to the nucleus, but PH domain of isoform 2 directs it to the cytosol. PH domain of isoform 2 is required for binding to AP-1. PTM: Isoform PIKE-A is phosphorylated at Tyr-682 and Tyr-774 by FYN, preventing its apoptotic cleavage. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the centaurin gamma-like family. SIMILARITY: Contains 2 ANK repeats. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 Arf-GAP domain. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 PH domain.
