ArhGEF37 assists dynamin 2 during clathrin-mediated endocytosis.


ABSTRACT: Clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) engages over 30 proteins to secure efficient cargo and membrane uptake. While the function of most core CME components is well established, auxiliary mechanisms crucial for fine-tuning and adaptation remain largely elusive. In this study, we identify ArhGEF37, a currently uncharacterized protein, as a constituent of CME. Structure prediction together with quantitative cellular and biochemical studies present a unique BAR domain and PI(4,5)P2-dependent protein-membrane interactions. Functional characterization yields accumulation of ArhGEF37 at dynamin 2-rich late endocytic sites and increased endocytosis rates in the presence of ArhGEF37. Together, these results introduce ArhGEF37 as a regulatory protein involved in endocytosis.
