periplasmic serine protease, Do/DeqQ family; This family consists of a set proteins various designated DegP, heat shock protein HtrA, and protease DO. The ortholog in Pseudomonas aeruginosa is designated MucD and is found in an operon that controls mucoid phenotype. This family also includes the DegQ (HhoA) paralog in E. coli which can rescue a DegP mutant, but not the smaller DegS paralog, which cannot. Members of this family are located in the periplasm and have separable functions as both protease and chaperone. Members have a trypsin domain and two copies of a PDZ domain. This protein protects bacteria from thermal and other stresses and may be important for the survival of bacterial pathogens.// The chaperone function is dominant at low temperatures, whereas the proteolytic activity is turned on at elevated temperatures.

PDZ domain 2 of the full-length isoform of whirlin and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain 2 of the full-length isoform of whirlin and related domains. Whirlin is an essential protein for developmental pathways in photoreceptor cells of the retina and hair cells of the inner ear. The full-length whirlin isoform has two harmonin N-like domains, three PDZ domains, a proline-rich region, and a PDZ-binding motif. Whirlin isoforms may form different complexes at the periciliary membrane complex (PMC) in photoreceptors, and the stereociliary tip and base in inner ear hair cells. It interacts with ADGRV1 and usherin at the PMC; with SANS and RpgrORF15 at the connecting cilium in photoreceptors; with EPS8, MYO15A, p55, and CASK proteins at the stereociliary tip of inner ear hair cells; and with ADGRV1, usherin, and PDZD7 at the stereociliary base in inner ear hair cells. Mutations in the gene encoding whirlin (WHRN; also known as USH2D and DFNB31), have been found to cause either USH2 subtype (USH2D) or autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness type 31 (DFNB31). Whirlin is the key protein in the USH2 complex (whirlin, usherin and GPR98) which recruits other USH2 causative proteins at the periciliary membrane in photoreceptors and the ankle link of the stereocilia in hair cells. Whirlin's interaction with espin, another stereociliary protein, may be important for the architecture of the USH2 complex. PDZ domains usually bind in a sequence-specific manner to short peptide sequences located at the C-terminal end of their partner proteins (known as PDZ binding motifs). The PDZ superfamily includes canonical PDZ domains as well as those with circular permutations and domain swapping mediated by beta-strands. This whirlin family PDZ2 domain is a canonical PDZ domain containing six beta-strands A-F and two alpha-helices (alpha-helix 1 and 2), arranged in the order: beta-strands A, B, C, alpha-helix 1, beta-strands D, E, alpha-helix 2 and beta-strand F.

Rhophilin-1 (RHPN1, also known as GTP-Rho-binding protein 1) and rhophilin-2 (RHPN2, also known as GTP-Rho-binding protein 2) are Rho-GTP binding proteins involved in cytoskeletal dynamics. Rhophilin-2 inhibits RhoA's activity to induce F-actin stress fibers. PDZ domains usually bind in a sequence-specific manner to short peptide sequences located at the C-terminal end of their partner proteins (known as PDZ binding motifs).

PDZ domain 1 of the canonical isoform 1 of PDZ domain containing 7 (PDZD7), and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain 1 of the long isoform 1 of PDZD7, and related domains. PDZD7 is critical for the organization of Usher syndrome type 2 (USH2) complex. Usher syndrome is the leading cause of hereditary sensory deaf-blindness in humans; USH2 is the most common sub-type. Formation of the USH2 complex is based upon heterodimerization between PDZD7 and whirlin (another PDZ domain-containing protein) and a subsequent dynamic interplay between USH2 proteins via their multiple PDZ domains. The PDZD7 PDZ2 domain binds GPR98 (also known as VLGR1) and usherin (USH2A). PDZD7 and whirlin form heterodimers through their multiple PDZ domains; whirlin and PDZD7 interact with usherin and GPR98 to form an interdependent ankle link complex. PDZD7 also interacts with myosin VIIa. PDZD7 also forms homodimers through its PDZ2 domain. Various isoforms of PDZD7 produced by alternative splicing have been identified; this subgroup includes the first PDZ domain of the canonical isoform of PDZD7- isoform 1. PDZ domains usually bind in a sequence-specific manner to short peptide sequences located at the C-terminal end of their partner proteins (known as PDZ binding motifs). The PDZ superfamily includes canonical PDZ domains as well as those with circular permutations and domain swapping mediated by beta-strands. This PDZD7-like family PDZ1 domain is a canonical PDZ domain containing six beta-strands A-F and two alpha-helices (alpha-helix 1 and 2), arranged in the order: beta-strands A, B, C, alpha-helix 1, beta-strands D, E, alpha-helix 2 and beta-strand F.

PDZ domain of tax1-binding protein 3 (TAX1BP3), and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain of TAX1BP3, and related domains. TAX1BP3 (also known as glutaminase-interacting protein 3, tax interaction protein 1, TIP-1, tax-interacting protein 1) may regulate a number of protein-protein interactions by competing for PDZ domain binding sites. TAX1BP3 binds beta-catenin and may act as an inhibitor of the Wnt signaling pathway. It competes with LIN7A (also known as Lin-7A or LIN-7A) for inward rectifier potassium channel 4 (KCNJ4) binding, and thereby promotes KCNJ4 internalization. It may play a role in the Rho signaling pathway, and in the activation of CDC42 by the viral protein HPV16 E6. Binding partners of the TAX1BP3 PDZ domain include beta-catenin, KCNJ4, glutaminase liver isoform (GLS2), rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 16 (ARHGEF16), rhotekin, and CDK5 regulatory subunit-associated protein 3 (also known as LAPZ). PDZ domains usually bind in a sequence-specific manner to short peptide sequences located at the C-terminal end of their partner proteins (known as PDZ binding motifs). The PDZ superfamily includes canonical PDZ domains as well as those with circular permutations and domain swapping mediated by beta-strands.

PDZD11 (also known as ATPase-interacting PDZ protein, plasma membrane calcium ATPase-interacting single-PDZ protein, PMCA-interacting single-PDZ protein, PISP) is involved in the dynamic assembly of apical junctions (AJs). It is recruited by PLEKHA7 to AJs to promote the efficient junctional recruitment and stabilization of nectins, and the efficient early phases of assembly of AJs in epithelial cells. The PDZD11 PDZ domain binds nectin-1 and nectin-3. PDZD11 also binds to a PDZ binding motif located in the C-terminal tail of the human sodium-dependent multivitamin transporter, to the cytoplasmic tail of the Menkes copper ATPase ATP7A, and to the cytoplasmic tail of all plasma membrane Ca2+-ATPase b-splice variants.

It has a coiled-coil domain, 4 PDZ domains and a MAGUK domain (an SH3 domain next to a non-catalytically active guanylate kinase domain). Deregulation of Dlg5 has been implicated in the malignancy of several cancer types. PDZ domains usually bind in a sequence-specific manner to short peptide sequences located at the C-terminal end of their partner proteins (known as PDZ binding motifs). The PDZ superfamily includes canonical PDZ domains as well as those with circular permutations and domain swapping mediated by beta-strands. This Dlg5-like family PDZ1 domain is a canonical PDZ domain containing six beta-strands A-F and two alpha-helices (alpha-helix 1 and 2), arranged in the order: beta-strands A, B, C, alpha-helix 1, beta-strands D, E, alpha-helix 2 and beta-strand F.

PDZ domain of densin, erbin, and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain of densin, erbin, and related domains. Densin (also known as leucine-rich repeat-containing protein 7, LRRC7, densin-180, protein LAP1) and erbin (also known as densin-180-like protein, Erbb2-interacting protein, protein LAP2) belong to the LAP (leucine-rich repeat and PDZ domain) family of scaffolding proteins that play roles in the maintenance of cell shape and apical-basal polarity. Densin and erbin are components of the excitatory postsynaptic compartment and are regulators of dendritic morphology and postsynaptic structure. The densin PDZ domain binds CaV1.3 alpha1 subunit, delta-catenin, and MAGUIN-1. Binding partners of the erbin PDZ domain include ErbB receptor tyrosine kinase ErbB2, HTLV-1 Tax1, Cav1.3 Ca2+channels, and constituents of the cadherin:catenin cell adhesion complex, in particular delta-catenin, p0071 and ARVCF. The erbin PDZ domain binds Smad3, a transductor of the TGFbeta pathway, possibly by a novel interface of binding. Erbin and two other LAP proteins (scribble and lano) redundantly regulate epithelial polarity and apical adhesion complex. PDZ domains usually bind in a sequence-specific manner to short peptide sequences located at the C-terminal end of their partner proteins (known as PDZ binding motifs). The PDZ superfamily includes canonical PDZ domains as well as those with circular permutations and domain swapping mediated by beta-strands.

PDZ domains of the Na+/H+ exchange regulatory cofactor (NHERF) family (NHERF1-4), and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain of the Na+/H+ exchange regulatory cofactor (NHERF) family of multi-PDZ-domain-containing scaffolding proteins (NHERF1-4), and related domains. The NHERF family includes NHERF1 (also known as EBP50), NHERF2 (also known as E3KARP; TKA-1; SIP-1), NHERF3 (also known as CAP70; CLAMP; Napi-Cap-1; PDZD1) and NHERF4 (also known as IKEPP; PDZK2; Napi-Cap-2). NHERF1 and NHERF2 have tandem PDZ domains (PDZ1-2); NHERF3 and NHERF4 have four PDZ domains (PDZ1-4). NHERFs are involved in the regulation of multiple receptors or transporters, such as type II sodium-phosphate cotransporter (Npt2a), purinergic P2Y1 receptor P2Y1R, the beta2-adrenergic receptor (beta2-AR), parathyroid hormone receptor type 1 (PTHR), the lysophosphatidic acid receptors (LPARs), sodium-hydrogen exchanger 3 (NHE3), and cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). NHERF-PDZ1 domain interaction partners include Npt2a, purinergic P2Y1 receptor, beta2-AR, CFTR, PTHR, NH3, G-protein-coupled receptor kinase 6 (GRK6A), platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR), B1 subunit of the H+ATPase, cholesterol, receptor for activated C-kinase RACK1, aquaporin 9, among others. The NHERF PDZ2 domain interacts with fewer proteins: NHERF1 PDZ2 binds Npt2a, PTHR, beta-catenin, aquaporin 9, and RACK1; NHERF2 PDZ2 binds LPA2, P2Y1R, and NHE3, cGMP-dependent protein kinase type II (cGKII). NHERF4 PDZ1 and PDZ4 bind the epithelial Ca(2+) channels TRPV5 and TRPV6. NHERF2/NHERF3 heterodimerization is mediated by PDZ domains of NHERF2 and the C-terminal PDZ domain recognition motif of NHERF3. NHERF4 regulates several transporters mediating influx of xenobiotics and nutrients in the small intestine. PDZ domains usually bind in a sequence-specific manner to short peptide sequences located at the C-terminal end of their partner proteins (known as PDZ binding motifs). The PDZ superfamily includes canonical PDZ domains as well as those with circular permutations and domain swapping mediated by beta-strands.

PDZ domain of Rap guanine nucleotide exchange factor 2 and Rap guanine nucleotide exchange factor 6, and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain of Rap guanine nucleotide exchange factor 2 (RapGEF2, also named RA-GEF-1, PDZ-GEF1, CNrasGEF and nRapGEP) and Rap guanine nucleotide exchange factor 6 (RapGEF6, also named RA-GEF-2 and PDZ-GEF2). RapGEF2 and RapGEF6 constitute a subfamily of guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) for RAP small GTPases that is characterized by the possession of the PDZ and Ras/Rap-associating domains. They activate Rap small GTPases, by catalyzing the release of GDP from the inactive GDP-bound forms, thereby accelerating GTP loading to yield the active GTP-bound forms. The PDZ domain of RapGEF6 (also known as PDZ-GEF2) binds junctional adhesion molecule A (JAM-A). PDZ domains usually bind in a sequence-specific manner to short peptide sequences located at the C-terminal end of their partner proteins (known as PDZ binding motifs). The PDZ superfamily includes canonical PDZ domains as well as those with circular permutations and domain swapping mediated by beta-strands.

PDZ domain of membrane palmitoylated proteins (MPPs), and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain of MPP1-7 (also known as MAGUK p55 subfamily members 1-7), and related domains. MPPs comprise a subfamily of a larger group of multidomain proteins, namely, membrane-associated guanylate kinases (MAGUKs). MPPs form diverse protein complexes at the cell membranes, which are involved in a wide range of cellular processes, including establishing proper cell structure, polarity and cell adhesion. MPPs have only one PDZ domain. PDZ domains usually bind in a sequence-specific manner to short peptide sequences located at the C-terminal end of their partner proteins (known as PDZ binding motifs). The PDZ superfamily includes canonical PDZ domains as well as those with circular permutations and domain swapping mediated by beta-strands.

PDZ domain 1 of the full-length isoform of whirlin and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain 1 of the full-length isoform of whirlin and related domains. Whirlin is an essential protein for developmental pathways in photoreceptor cells of the retina and hair cells of the inner ear. The full-length whirlin isoform has two harmonin N-like domains, three PDZ domains, a proline-rich region, and a PDZ-binding motif. Whirlin isoforms may form different complexes at the periciliary membrane complex (PMC) in photoreceptors, and the stereociliary tip and base in inner ear hair cells. It interacts with ADGRV1 and usherin at the PMC; with SANS and RpgrORF15 at the connecting cilium in photoreceptors; with EPS8, MYO15A, p55, and CASK proteins at the stereociliary tip of inner ear hair cells; and with ADGRV1, usherin, and PDZD7 at the stereociliary base in inner ear hair cells. Mutations in the gene encoding whirlin (WHRN; also known as USH2D and DFNB31), have been found to cause either USH2 subtype (USH2D) or autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness type 31 (DFNB31). Whirlin is the key protein in the USH2 complex (whirlin, usherin and GPR98) which recruits other USH2 causative proteins at the periciliary membrane in photoreceptors and the ankle link of the stereocilia in hair cells. Whirlin's interaction with espin, another stereociliary protein, may be important for the architecture of the USH2 complex. PDZ domains usually bind in a sequence-specific manner to short peptide sequences located at the C-terminal end of their partner proteins (known as PDZ binding motifs). The PDZ superfamily includes canonical PDZ domains as well as those with circular permutations and domain swapping mediated by beta-strands.

PTPN13, also known as Fas-associated protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1 (FAP-1), protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1E (PTP-E1), and protein-tyrosine phosphatase (PTPL1), negatively regulates FAS-mediated apoptosis and NGFR-mediated pro-apoptotic signaling, and may also regulate phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) signaling. It contains 5 PDZ domains; interaction partners of its second PDZ domain (PDZ2) include the Fas receptor (TNFRSF6) and thyroid receptor-interacting protein 6 (TRIP6). The second PDZ (PDZ2) domain, but not PDZ1 or PDZ3, of FRMPD2 binds to GluN2A and GluN2B, two subunits of N-methyl-d-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptors. Other binding partners of the FRMPDZ2 PDZ2 domain include NOD2, and catenin family members, delta catenin (CTNND2), armadillo repeat gene deleted in velo-cardio-facial syndrome (ARVCF) and p0071 (also known as plakophilin 4; PKP4).

circularly permuted PDZ domain of C-terminal processing peptidase (CPP), a serine protease, and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain of CPP (also known as tail-specific protease, PRC protein, Protease Re, and Photosystem II D1 protein processing peptidase), and related domains. CPP belongs to the peptidase S41A family. It cleaves a C-terminal 11 residue peptide from the precursor form of penicillin-binding protein 3, and may have a role in protecting bacterium from thermal and osmotic stresses. In the plant chloroplast, the enzyme removes the C-terminal extension of the D1 polypeptide of photosystem II. PDZ domains usually bind in a sequence-specific manner to short peptide sequences located at the C-terminal of their partner proteins (known as PDZ binding motifs). The PDZ superfamily includes canonical PDZ domains and as well as those with circular permutations and domain swapping of beta-strands. The canonical PDZ domain contains six beta-strands A-F and two alpha-helices (alpha-helix 1 and 2); arranged as A, B, C, alpha-helix 1, beta-strands D, E, alpha-helix 2 and beta-strand F. This CPP-like PDZ domain is a circularly permuted PDZ domain which places beta-strand A on the C-terminus. Another permutation exists in the PDZ superfamily which places both beta-strands A and B on the C-terminus.

circularly permuted first PDZ domain (PDZ1) of Escherichia coli periplasmic serine endoprotease DegP and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain 1 of Escherichia coli DegP (also known as heat shock protein DegP and Protease Do) and related domains. DegP belongs to the HtrA family of housekeeping proteases. It acts as a protease, degrading transiently denatured and unfolded or misfolded proteins which accumulate in the periplasm following heat shock or other stress conditions, and as a molecular chaperone at low temperatures. DegP has two PDZ domains in addition to the protease domain; its PDZ1 domain is responsible for identifying the distinct substrate sequences that affect degradation (degron) of the substrate sequence, and its PDZ2 domain is responsible for combining with other DegP monomers to form a stable oligomer structure. PDZ domains usually bind in a sequence-specific manner to short peptide sequences located at the C-terminal of their partner proteins (known as PDZ binding motifs). The PDZ superfamily includes canonical PDZ domains and as well as those with circular permutations and domain swapping of beta-strands.

PDZ domain 1 of syntenin-1, syntenin-2, and related domains; PDZ (PSD-95 (Postsynaptic density protein 95), Dlg (Discs large protein), and ZO-1 (Zonula occludens-1)) domain 1 of syntenin-1, syntenin-2, and related domains. Syntenins are implicated in various cellular processes such as trafficking, signaling, and cancer metastasis. They bind to signaling and adhesion molecules, such as syndecans, neurexins, ephrin B, and phospholipid PIP2. Through its tandem PDZ domains (PDZ1 and PDZ2), syntenin links syndecans to other cell surface receptors and kinases, such as E-cadherin and ephrin-B, establishing signaling crosstalk. During syndecan binding, syntenin PDZ2 serves as a high-affinity domain, and PDZ1, also necessary for binding, acts as a complementary, low-affinity domain; this is also the case for syntenin binding to proto-oncogene c-Src. The syntenin PDZ domain-PIP2 interaction controls Arf6-mediated syndecan recycling through endosomal compartments; both PDZ1 and PDZ2 interact with PIP2. Different binding partners and downstream regulators of syntenin1 PDZ domains, such as to proto-oncogene c-Src, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and focal adhesion kinase (FAK), have been identified that promote the progression and invasion of a variety of cancers, such as melanoma, glioblastoma multiforme and breast cancer. PDZ domains usually bind in a sequence-specific manner to short peptide sequences located at the C-terminal end of their partner proteins (known as PDZ binding motifs). The PDZ superfamily includes canonical PDZ domains as well as those with circular permutations and domain swapping mediated by beta-strands.
