The protein encoded by this gene is a GTPase-activating protein (GAP) which associates with the Golgi apparatus and which interacts with ADP-ribosylation factor 1 (ARF1). The encoded protein promotes hydrolysis of ARF1-bound GTP and is required for the dissociation of coat proteins from Golgi-derived membranes and vesicles. Dissociation of the coat proteins is required for the fusion of these vesicles with target compartments. The activity of this protein is stimulated by phosphoinosides and inhibited by phosphatidylcholine. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
A synthesized peptide derived from human ARFGAP2.
ZNF289 (zinc finger protein 289), also known as ARFGAP2 (ADP-ribosylation factor GTPase activating protein 2), IRZ, Zfp289 or Nbla10535, functions as a GTPase-activating protein (GAP) for ARF family proteins. Localizing to the cytoplasmic side of the Golgi apparatus, ZNF289 contains one ARF-GAP domain and is found associated with COP-I-coated vesicles.
