Background: GIPC, for GAIP interacting protein at the C terminus (also designated SEMCAP-1 or synectin), is a PDZ domain containing protein that interacts with RGS-GAIP, a GTPase-activating protein (GAP) for G(a i) subunits. GIPC was also identified as TIP-2, a protein that interacts with the viral oncoprotein TAX, which transactivates viral and cellular promoters through interactions with various transcription factors. PDZ domain-containing proteins are primarily localized to cell-cell junctions in epithelial cells and neurons where they coordinate the assembly of multiprotein complexes. GIPC specifically localizes to clusters of vesicles near the plasma membrane and participates in G protein-coupled signaling pathway involved in regulating clathrin-coated vesicular trafficking. GIPC also associates with membrane bound semaphorin F (M-SemF), which is involved in neuronal axon growth, and it appears to regulate the subcellular distribution of M-SemF in the brain.
