ARNO3/CYTH3 (GRP1) Sec7 domain catalyzes guanine nucleotide exchange on ARF1 in vitro, and overexpression of ARNO3 in mammalian cells causes Golgi fragmentation, redistribution of Golgi resident proteins and beta-COP, and inhibition of secretory transport (SEAP assay), establishing a role for CYTH3 in Golgi structure and function through ARF1 activation. |

GRP1/CYTH3 Sec7 domain catalyzes guanine nucleotide exchange on ARF1 and ARF5 but not ARF6 in vitro; PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 (but not PtdIns(4,5)P2) markedly enhances ARF exchange activity; the PH domain binds PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 with Kd ~0.5 µM, ~100-fold higher affinity than PtdIns(4,5)P2; and this activation is selectively blocked by inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate. |

GRP1/CYTH3 PH domain binds the inositol head group of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 with high affinity (Kd ~32 nM for Ins(1,3,4,5)P4) and translocates from cytosol to plasma membrane upon NGF or EGF stimulation in PC12 cells in a PI3K-dependent and PH-domain-dependent manner, establishing PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 as the in vivo recruitment signal. |

GRP1/CYTH3 catalyzes GTP/GDP exchange on ARF6 in a cell-free system and co-localizes with endogenous ARF6 at insulin/EGF-induced plasma membrane ruffles; co-expression of GRP1 elevates GTP-loaded ARF6 in intact cells, establishing ARF6 as a physiological substrate of GRP1. |

The GRP1/CYTH3 PH domain selectively binds PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 and translocates to the plasma membrane in response to insulin (HEK 293 cells) or PDGF (Swiss 3T3 cells); under oxidative stress conditions that generate only PtdIns(3,4)P2, the GRP1 PH domain does not translocate, confirming its strict PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 selectivity in vivo. |

The unique diglycine motif (Gly274-Gly275) in the GRP1/CYTH3 PH domain is the structural determinant of its ~650-fold selectivity for PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 over PtdIns(4,5)P2; adding a glycine to this motif increases PtdIns(4,5)P2 affinity without affecting PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 binding, whereas deleting a glycine from the ARNO triglycine motif produces the opposite effect. |

Crystal structures of dual-specificity splice variants of the Grp1/CYTH3 PH domain bound to PtdIns(4,5)P2 and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 headgroups reveal that a glycine insertion in the beta1/beta2 loop alleviates unfavorable contacts and enables PtdIns(4,5)P2 binding via a novel binding mode, while reducing PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 affinity through loss of beta1/beta2 loop contacts; systematic mutagenesis validates these structural determinants. |

GRP1/CYTH3 PH domain binds membrane-embedded PIP3 with Kd ~50 nM; background anionic lipids (PS, PI) facilitate PIP3 docking by increasing the on-rate via a two-step electrostatic search mechanism, without changing the off-rate from the specific PIP3 site. |

Residue E345 in the GRP1/CYTH3 PH domain acts as a sentry glutamate that excludes PtdIns(4,5)P2; the E345K charge-reversal mutation increases PI(4,5)P2 affinity 8-fold and causes constitutive plasma membrane targeting in cells; hydrolysis of PI(4,5)P2 releases the E345K mutant, with efficiency increased when Arf6 binding is also disrupted. |

In C. elegans, GRP-1 (the sole cytohesin ortholog) controls asymmetric neuroblast divisions that produce apoptotic daughters; loss of grp-1 results in more symmetric cell sizes and conversion of the apoptotic daughter to its sister fate (extra neurons); GRP-1's GEF activity (Sec7 domain) is necessary, and genetic interactions place GRP-1 in a pathway with ARF GAP CNT-2 and ARF GEFs EFA-6 and BRIS-1; GRP-1 acts at the plasma membrane/cytokinetic furrow. |

Grp1/CYTH3 forms homodimers at low micromolar concentrations via N-terminal heptad repeats and spontaneously re-equilibrates with Grsp1 to form heterodimers in an antiparallel orientation; formation of Grsp1-Grp1 heterodimers does not substantially alter Grp1 binding to PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 or PtdIns(4,5)P2 headgroups or liposome partitioning. |

Phosphorylation of Grp1/CYTH3 switches its PH domain specificity from PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 (plasma membrane) to phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P; recycling endosome); phosphorylation also releases an autoinhibitory mechanism allowing the coiled-coil domain to engage two peripheral membrane proteins of the recycling endosome, redirecting Grp1 recruitment from plasma membrane to recycling endosome. |
