Domain

The EH domain interacts with Asn-Pro-Phe (NPF) motifs of target proteins.

Function

ATP- and membrane-binding protein that controls membrane reorganization/tubulation upon ATP hydrolysis (By similarity). Plays a role in membrane trafficking between the plasma membrane and endosomes (PubMed:17233914). Important for the internalization of GLUT4. Required for fusion of myoblasts to skeletal muscle myotubes. Required for normal translocation of FER1L5 to the plasma membrane (By similarity). Regulates the equilibrium between cell surface-associated and cell surface-dissociated caveolae by constraining caveolae at the cell membrane (PubMed:25588833).

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the TRAFAC class dynamin-like GTPase superfamily. Dynamin/Fzo/YdjA family. EHD subfamily.

Tissue specificity

Highly expressed in heart and moderately expressed in placenta, lung, and skeletal muscle.
