Also known as CLIPR-59RSNL1
Summary
CLIP3 (CAP-Gly domain containing linker protein 3, HGNC:24314) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 19q13.12, encoding CAP-Gly domain-containing linker protein 3 (Q96DZ5). Functions as a cytoplasmic linker protein.
This gene encodes a member of the cytoplasmic linker protein 170 family. Members of this protein family contain a cytoskeleton-associated protein glycine-rich domain and mediate the interaction of microtubules with cellular organelles. The encoded protein plays a role in T cell apoptosis by facilitating the association of tubulin and the lipid raft ganglioside GD3. The encoded protein also functions as a scaffold protein mediating membrane localization of phosphorylated protein kinase B. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for this gene.

- CLIPR-59 modulates ubiquitination of RIP1, resulting in the formation of Complex-II and thus promoting Caspase-8 activation to induce apoptosis by TNF-alpha. (PMID:22297296)
- DHHC17 is a ClipR-59 palmitoyltransferase that modulates ClipR-59 plasma membrane binding. (PMID:24001771)

CAP-Gly domain-containing linker protein 3 — Q96DZ5 (reviewed: Q96DZ5)
Alternative names: Cytoplasmic linker protein 170-related 59 kDa protein
All UniProt accessions (2): Q96DZ5, K7ESF3
UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Functions as a cytoplasmic linker protein. Involved in TGN-endosome dynamics. May modulate the cellular compartmentalization of AKT kinase family and promote its cell membrane localization, thereby playing a role in glucose transport in adipocytes.
Subunit / interactions. Homodimer. Interacts with AKT1 and AKT2; when AKT1 and AKT2 are phosphorylated and activated, affinity is higher for AKT2. Interacts with ZDHHC13 (via ANK repeats). Interacts with ZDHHC17 (via ANK repeats).
Subcellular location. Cell membrane. Cytoplasm. Golgi apparatus. Golgi stack.
Post-translational modifications. Palmitoylation by ZDHHC17 regulates association with the plasma membrane.
Domain organisation. Microtubule association is inhibited by the ANK repeats and the Golgi localization region (GoLD).
Miscellaneous. The N-terminal half is dispensable for proper Golgi targeting, whereas the GoLD region is required.
