Overview of the Structural Clusters (SC) and Functional Families within this CATH Superfamily. Clusters with a representative structure are represented by a filled circle.

Superfamily: Longin module

Rab GTPases are key regulators of membrane traffic pathways within eukaryotic cells. They are specifically activated by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs), which convert them from their inactive GDP-bound form to the active GTP-bound form. In higher eukaryotes, proteins containing DENN-domains comprise a major GEF family. The N-terminal half of the DENN domain folds into a longin module, consisting of a central antiparallel beta-sheet layered between three alpha-helices. This entry represents the longin module PMID:22065758.
