Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function May act as a scaffolding protein within caveolar membranes. Interacts directly with G-protein alpha subunits and can functionally regulate their activity. Acts as an accessory protein in conjunction with CAV1 in targeting to lipid rafts and driving caveolae formation. Positive regulator of cellular mitogenesis of the MAPK signaling pathway. Required for the insulin-stimulated nuclear translocation and activation of MAPK1 and STAT3, and the subsequent regulation of cell cycle progression (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Subcellular Localization Nucleus {ECO:0000269PubMed:15370296}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269PubMed:15370296}. Golgi apparatus membrane {ECO:0000269PubMed:15370296}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000269PubMed:15370296}. Cell membrane {ECO:0000269PubMed:15370296}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000269PubMed:15370296}. Membrane, caveola {ECO:0000269PubMed:15370296}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000269PubMed:15370296}. Note=Potential hairpin-like structure in the membrane. Membrane protein of caveolae. Tyr-19- phosphorylated form is enriched at sites of cell-cell contact and is translocated to the nucleus in complex with MAPK1 in response to insulin. Tyr-27-phosphorylated form is located both in the cytoplasm and plasma membrane. CAV1-mediated Ser-23-phosphorylated form locates to the plasma membrane. Ser-36-phosphorylated form resides in intracellular compartments (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
