Tgtp1

Gene

Tgtp1

Protein

T-cell-specific guanine nucleotide triphosphate-binding protein 1

Organism

Mus musculus

Length

415 amino acids

Function

Involved in innate cell-autonomous resistance to intracellular pathogens, such as Toxoplasma gondii. During avirulent type II T. gondii infection, recruited to the parasitophorous vacuole (PV) membrane, leading to PV vesiculation and rupture, and subsequent digestion of the parasite within the cytosol (PubMed:19265156, PubMed:24563254). Not recruited to virulent type I T. gondii PV membrane (PubMed:19265156). May confer an antiviral state for vesicular stomatitis virus (PubMed:9725230).

Similarity

Belongs to the TRAFAC class dynamin-like GTPase superfamily. IRG family.
