GAB1
geneOn this page
Summary
GAB1 (GRB2 associated binding protein 1, HGNC:4066) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 4q31.21, encoding GRB2-associated-binding protein 1 (Q13480). Adapter protein that plays a role in intracellular signaling cascades triggered by activated receptor-type kinases.
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the IRS1-like multisubstrate docking protein family. It is an important mediator of branching tubulogenesis and plays a central role in cellular growth response, transformation and apoptosis. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Function. Adapter protein that plays a role in intracellular signaling cascades triggered by activated receptor-type kinases. Plays a role in FGFR1 signaling. Probably involved in signaling by the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and the insulin receptor (INSR). Involved in the MET/HGF-signaling pathway.
Subunit / interactions. Identified in a complex containing FRS2, GRB2, GAB1, PIK3R1 and SOS1. Forms a tripartite complex containing GAB1, METTL13 and SPRY2. Within the complex interacts with METTL13. Interacts with GRB2 and with other SH2-containing proteins. Interacts with phosphorylated LAT2. Interacts with PTPRJ. Interacts (phosphorylated) with PTPN11. Interacts with HCK.
Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylated in response to FGFR1 activation. Phosphorylated on tyrosine residue(s) by the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and the insulin receptor (INSR). Tyrosine phosphorylation of GAB1 mediates interaction with several proteins that contain SH2 domains. Phosphorylated on tyrosine residues by HCK upon IL6 signaling.
Disease relevance. Deafness, autosomal recessive, 26 (DFNB26) [MIM:605428] A form of non-syndromic sensorineural deafness characterized by prelingual, severe to profound hearing loss. Sensorineural deafness results from damage to the neural receptors of the inner ear, the nerve pathways to the brain, or the area of the brain that receives sound information.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 120 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
