Target of myb1, chicken, homolog of; tom1

DESCRIPTION

TOM1 is the founding member of a family of proteins involved in endocytosis. These proteins have an N-terminal Vps27/HGS (604375)/STAM (601899) (VHS) domain, followed by a GGA (see 606004)/TOM1 (GAT) domain (Katoh et al., 2006).

CLONING

The retroviral oncogene v-myb of avian myeloblastosis virus (AMV) and avian leukemia virus E26 is a mutated and truncated version of the c-myb protooncogene (see 189990), which encodes a transcription factor. In a differential display study of v-myb oncogene-transformed chicken myelomonocytic cells, Burk et al. (1997) identified the tom1 gene as a specific target of the v-myb oncogene. By assembling the sequences of a group of human TOM1 ESTs, Seroussi et al. (1999) determined a full-length TOM1 coding sequence. The deduced 492-amino acid TOM1 protein has an N-terminal domain that shares sequence similarity to the N-terminal domains of human HGS (604375), human STAM (601899), and yeast VPS27, all of which are proteins associated with vesicular trafficking at the endosome. TOM1 also has a predicted central coiled-coil domain. Human TOM1 shares 76% amino acid sequence identity with chicken tom1 and 89% identity with mouse Tom1, the cDNA of which Seroussi et al. (1999) also cloned. Northern blot analysis of human tissues detected a ubiquitously expressed 2.3-kb TOM1 transcript, with the highest expression in skeletal muscle, placenta, heart, and liver, and lower expression in brain, lung, kidney, and pancreas. In situ hybridization of a 17.5-day mouse embryo showed ubiquitous Tom1 expression, with the highest level in the intestines. In situ hybridization of a section from the mesencephalic level of adult mouse brain detected Tom1 expression throughout brain, with high levels in the thalamic area, cerebellum, hippocampal formation, and medial lemniscus. In the cerebellum, Tom1 was expressed strongly in Purkinje cells and the granular layers. By PCR of a human liver cDNA library, Katoh et al. (2006) cloned human TOM1. The deduced 492-amino acid protein has an N-terminal VHS domain, a central GAT domain, and a C-terminal domain with a clathrin (see 118955) box sequence.

GENE FUNCTION

Using yeast 2-hybrid analysis with the C-terminal portion of endofin (608880) as bait against a human brain cDNA library, Seet et al. (2004) identified TOM1 as an endofin binding partner. GST pull-down and coimmunoprecipitation assays confirmed that the C-terminal region of endofin binds to the C-terminal region of TOM1. While immunofluorescence showed a cytosolic distribution of TOM1, density gradient analysis showed partially overlapping expression of TOM1 and endofin in early endosomes. Overexpression of endofin recruits TOM1 to endosomal aggregates. Katoh et al. (2006) stated that the GAT domain of human TOM1 interacts with the endosomal protein TOLLIP (606277) and that the C-terminal domain TOM1 interacts with clathrin heavy chain (CLTC; 118955). They found that the related proteins TOM1L1 (604701) and TOM1L2 (615519) also interacted with TOLLIP and clathrin. When coexpressed, TOM1 and TOM1L1 were recruited onto TOLLIP-positive endosomes. Katoh et al. (2006) concluded that, in conjunction with TOLLIP, TOM1 family proteins recruit clathrin onto endosomes and modulate endosomal function.

GENE STRUCTURE

Seroussi et al. (1999) determined that the TOM1 gene contains 15 exons, with a 17.9-kb first intron.
