Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) mediates diverse cellular responses through the activation of at least six LPA receptors--LPA(1-6,) but the interacting proteins and signaling pathways that mediate the specificity of these receptors are largely unknown. We noticed that LPA(1) contains a PDZ binding motif (SVV) identical to that present in two other proteins that interact with the PDZ protein GIPC. GIPC is involved in endocytic trafficking of several receptors including TrkA, VEGFR2, lutropin and dopa ...[more]
