Function

Bifunctional modulator of guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) (PubMed:19211784, PubMed:27621449). Acts as a non-receptor guanine nucleotide exchange factor which binds to and activates guanine nucleotide-binding protein G(i) alpha subunits (PubMed:19211784, PubMed:21954290, PubMed:23509302, PubMed:25187647). Also acts as a guanine nucleotide dissociation inhibitor for guanine nucleotide-binding protein G(s) subunit alpha GNAS (PubMed:27621449). Essential for cell migration (PubMed:16139227, PubMed:19211784, PubMed:20462955, PubMed:21954290). Interacts in complex with G(i) alpha subunits with the EGFR receptor, retaining EGFR at the cell membrane following ligand stimulation and promoting EGFR signaling which triggers cell migration (PubMed:20462955). Binding to Gi-alpha subunits displaces the beta and gamma subunits from the heterotrimeric G-protein complex which enhances phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)-dependent phosphorylation and kinase activity of AKT1/PKB (PubMed:19211784). Phosphorylation of AKT1/PKB induces the phosphorylation of downstream effectors GSK3 and FOXO1/FKHR, and regulates DNA replication and cell proliferation (By similarity). Binds in its tyrosine-phosphorylated form to the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) regulatory subunit PIK3R1 which enables recruitment of PIK3R1 to the EGFR receptor, enhancing PI3K activity and cell migration (PubMed:21954290). Plays a role as a key modulator of the AKT-mTOR signaling pathway, controlling the tempo of the process of newborn neuron integration during adult neurogenesis, including correct neuron positioning, dendritic development and synapse formation (By similarity). Inhibition of G(s) subunit alpha GNAS leads to reduced cellular levels of cAMP and suppression of cell proliferation (PubMed:27621449). Essential for the integrity of the actin cytoskeleton (PubMed:16139227, PubMed:19211784). Required for formation of actin stress fibers and lamellipodia (PubMed:15882442). May be involved in membrane sorting in the early endosome (PubMed:15882442). Plays a role in ciliogenesis and cilium morphology and positioning and this may partly be through regulation of the localization of scaffolding protein CROCC/Rootletin (PubMed:27623382).

Notes

ab250102 is the carrier-free version of Anti-GIV antibody [EPR18433] ab179481.

Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.

This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.

Activity summary

Girdin also known as GIV or Girders of actin filaments plays a significant role in cell signaling. It is a multifunctional adaptor protein with a mass of approximately 220 kDa. GIV is expressed in various tissues including the brain heart and immune cells. It acts as an important player in the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton which is critical for cellular processes like migration and adhesion.

Biological function summary

GIV is important for modulating signal transduction pathways. It interacts with G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and growth factor receptors facilitating the activation of G-protein signaling. GIV does not typically function alone; it integrates into larger signaling complexes interfacing with other proteins to propagate signals downstream. Through these interactions it influences processes like cell proliferation and survival.

Pathways

GIV significantly impacts the PI3K-Akt and MAPK pathways. It acts as an upstream regulator controlling the activation of signaling cascades that determine cell fate decisions. GIV works closely with proteins such as Akt a central protein in the PI3K pathway and Grb2 linking receptor tyrosine kinases to downstream signaling mechanisms. These interactions highlight GIV’s importance in mediating cellular responses to external stimuli.

Associated diseases and disorders

GIV’s dysregulation links to cancer and metabolic disorders. In cancer GIV overexpression correlates with enhanced tumor progression and poor patient prognosis. GIV interacts with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) to drive oncogenic signaling promoting tumor survival and growth. In metabolic disorders like diabetes alterations in GIV’s signaling pathways contribute to insulin resistance. Investigations into these interactions highlight the potential for targeting GIV therapeutically using inhibitors like DUB inhibitors and PR-619.
