Disease relevance of RANBP2

  • Here, we show RanBP2 is abundant in the ellipsoid compartment of photoreceptors and RanGTPase-positive particles in cytoplasmic tracks extending away from the nuclear envelope of subpopulations of ganglion cells, suggesting RanBP2's release from nuclear pore complexes [1].
  • We demonstrated that peripheral T cell tolerance toward murine melanoma self-antigens gp100 and TRP-2 can be broken by an autologous oral DNA vaccine containing the murine ubiquitin gene fused to minigenes encoding peptide epitopes gp100(25-33) and TRP-2(181-188) [2].
  • Our results show that TRP-2-specific CD8+ T cells elicited by immunization with recombinant adenovirus expressing the mini-gene epitope are efficiently stimulated and amplified in vitro to a greater extent by aAPCs than by natural splenic APCs [3].
 

High impact information on RANBP2

  • RanBP2 directly interacts with the E2 enzyme Ubc9 and strongly enhances SUMO1-transfer from Ubc9 to the SUMO1 target Sp100 [4].
  • We have found that the mammalian Ran GTPase-activating protein RanGAP1 is highly concentrated at the cytoplasmic periphery of the nuclear pore complex (NPC), where it associates with the 358-kDa Ran-GTP-binding protein RanBP2 [5].
  • A small ubiquitin-related polypeptide involved in targeting RanGAP1 to nuclear pore complex protein RanBP2 [5].
  • Inhibition of nuclear protein import resulting from antibodies directed at NPC-associated RanGAP1 cannot be overcome by soluble cytosolic RanGAP1, indicating that GTP hydrolysis by Ran at RanBP2 is required for nuclear protein import [5].
  • Type-II cyclophilin is identical to RanBP2, a large protein that binds the GTPase Ran [6].
 

Biological context of RANBP2

 

Anatomical context of RANBP2

 

Associations of RANBP2 with chemical compounds

  • Parkin ubiquitinates and promotes the degradation of RanBP2 [13].
  • Nup358, a cytoplasmically exposed nucleoporin with peptide repeats, Ran-GTP binding sites, zinc fingers, a cyclophilin A homologous domain, and a leucine-rich region [14].
  • Nonmembrane nucleoporins Nup153, Nup214, and Nup358 that are modified by O-linked N-acetylglucosamine and recognized by a monoclonal antibody were phosphorylated throughout the cell cycle and hyperphosphorylated during M phase [15].
  • In particular, the conversion of an aspartic acid to an isoaspartic acid within the melanoma antigen tyrosinase-related protein (TRP)-2 peptide-(181-188) makes the otherwise immunologically ignored TRP-2 antigen immunogenic [16].
  • The aim was to investigate the roles of proline residues in extracellular loop 2 (P172, P183, P188 and P209) and transmembrane domains 2, 5, 11 and 12 (P108, P270, P526, P551, P552 and P570) in determining noradrenaline transporter (NET) expression and function [17].
 

Physical interactions of RANBP2

 

Regulatory relationships of RANBP2

  • KIF5C and KIF5B are specifically expressed in a subset of neuroretinal cells and differentially localize with RanBP2 and importin-beta in distinct compartments [1].
 

Other interactions of RANBP2

 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of RANBP2

  • Electron microscopy showed that RanBP2 forms a flexible filamentous molecule with a length of approximately 36 nm, suggesting that it comprises a major portion of the cytoplasmic fibrils implicated in initial binding of import substrates to the NPC [26].
  • Mutation of P108, P270 and P526 disrupted cell surface expression, from [3H]nisoxetine binding and confocal microscopy data [17].
  • Moreover, the intratumoral injection of immature DC after treatment with PIC liposome significantly increased the number of TRP-2-specific IFN-gamma-producing cells in the lymph nodes as well as spleen, which resulted in an augmentation of the anti-tumor immune response [27].
  • These results demonstrate that TRP-2 2M is an agonist epitope that can induce anti-tumor immunity superior to its wild-type epitope, and has potential application in peptide-mediated immunotherapy [28].
