  Domain Name: BAR_GRAF2
The Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (BAR) domain of GTPase Regulator Associated with Focal adhesion 2. BAR domains are dimerization, lipid binding and curvature sensing modules found in many different proteins with diverse functions. GTPase Regulator Associated with Focal adhesion kinase 2 (GRAF2), also called Rho GTPase activating protein 10 (ARHGAP10) or PS-GAP, is a GAP with activity towards Cdc42 and RhoA which regulates caspase-activated p21-activated protein kinase-2 (PAK-2p34). GRAF2 interacts with PAK-2p34, leading to its stabilization and decrease of cell death. It is highly expressed in skeletal muscle and also interacts with PKNbeta, which is a target of Rho. GRAF2 contains an N-terminal BAR domain, followed by a Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, a Rho GAP domain, and a C-terminal SH3 domain. BAR domains form dimers that bind to membranes, induce membrane bending and curvature, and may also be involved in protein-protein interactions. The BAR domain of the related protein GRAF directly interacts with its Rho GAP domain and inhibits its activity. Autoinhibited GRAF is capable of binding membranes and tubulating liposomes, showing that the membrane-tubulation and GAP-inhibitory functions of the BAR domain can occur simultaneously.
No pairwise interactions are available for this conserved domain.

Tips:
 If you've navigated here from a protein, hovering over a position on the weblogo will display the corresponding protein position for that domain position.

 The histograms below the weblogo indicate mutations found on the domain. Red is for disease (OMIM) and blue is for SNPs.

 Functional Features are displayed as orange boxes under the histograms. You can choose which features are displayed in the box below.
