Description: Homo sapiens Nedd4 family interacting protein 1 (NDFIP1), mRNA. RefSeq Summary (NM_030571): The protein encoded by this gene belongs to a small group of evolutionarily conserved proteins with three transmembrane domains. It is a potential target for ubiquitination by the Nedd4 family of proteins. This protein is thought to be part of a family of integral Golgi membrane proteins. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].

ID:NFIP1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=NEDD4 family-interacting protein 1; AltName: Full=Breast cancer-associated protein SGA-1M; AltName: Full=NEDD4 WW domain-binding protein 5; AltName: Full=Putative MAPK-activating protein PM13; AltName: Full=Putative NF-kappa-B-activating protein 164; AltName: Full=Putative NFKB and MAPK-activating protein; FUNCTION: Activates HECT domain-containing E3 ubiquitin-protein ligases, including NEDD4 and ITCH, and consequently modulates the stability of their targets. As a result, controls many cellular processes. Prevents chronic T-helper cells-mediated inflammation by activating ITCH and thus controlling JUNB degradation (By similarity). In cortical neurons, mediates the ubiquitination of SLC11A2/DMT1 by NEDD4L, leading to down-regulation of the divalent metal transporter and protection of the cells from cobalt and iron toxicity. Modulates EGFR signaling through multiple pathways. In particular, may regulate the ratio of AKT1-to-MAPK8 signaling in response to EGF, acting on AKT1 probably through PTEN destabilization and on MAPK8 through ITCH-dependent MAP2K4 inactivation. As a result, may control cell growth rate. SUBUNIT: Forms heterodimers with NDFIP2. Interacts with several E3 ubiquitin-protein ligases, including NEDD4, NEDD4L and WWP2. Interacts with ITCH, U2SURP and WWP2 (By similarity). The interaction with NEDD4, NEDD4L and ITCH leads to relocalization of these proteins to exosomes and eventually to exosomal secretion. Interacts with SLC11A2/DMT1. Interacts with PTEN. May interact with phosphorylated EGFR. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Endosome membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Golgi apparatus membrane (By similarity). Secreted. Note=Detected in exosomes and secreted via the exosomal pathway. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Widely expressed. Higher levels are detected in cerebellum, pituitary, thalamus, kidney, liver, testis, salivary glands and placenta. Also expressed in fetal brain, kidney and lung. INDUCTION: Increased protein expression in neuronal cells in response to Co(2+) or Fe(2+) ions. DOMAIN: The PY (WW-binding) motifs are required for E3 ubiquitin- protein ligase binding and activation and for ubiquitination. PTM: Ubiquitinated by NEDD4 and ITCH; mono-, di- and polyubiquitinated forms are detected. Ubiquitination regulates its degradation. PTM: Undergoes transient tyrosine phosphorylation following EGF stimulation, most probably by catalyzed by SRC. Phosphorylation SRC is enhanced in the presence of NDFIP2 which may act as a scaffold to recruit SRC to NDFIP1.

The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
