Clones referred to as ARD 1 were isolated from human and rat cDNA libraries. ARD 1 genes encode a putative 64-kDa protein that contains an 18-kDa ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) domain at the carboxyl terminus and is much larger than the other monomeric approximately 20-kDa guanine nucleotide-binding ARF proteins thus far identified. ARD 1 mRNAs of 3.7 and 4.1 kilobases were detected in all rat tissues as well as in mouse and rabbit brain, human fibroblasts, and human neuroblastoma cells but not in HL-60 cells. Based on sequence identities, ARD 1 is highly conserved between rat and human. The ARF domain of ARD 1 contains the consensus sequences believed to be involved in guanine nucleotide binding, which are conserved in the ARFs and other GTP-binding proteins. Recombinant ARD 1 or the ARF domain of ARD 1, which lacks the 15 amino acids corresponding to the amino-terminal regions of ARFs stimulated, in a GTP-dependent manner, cholera toxin ADP-ribosyltransferase activity in the presence of 0.3% Tween 20. It had no effect in the presence of SDS, dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine/cholate, or cardiolipin. These observations are consistent with the conclusion that the amino-terminal region of ARF proteins is not required for activation of cholera toxin. In addition, the characteristic features of ARF proteins may be found as domains of larger mammalian proteins.

ADP-ribosylation factor domain protein 1 (ARD1) is a multifunctional protein that belongs to the family of 20-kDa ARF proteins. The ARD1 gene encodes a 64-kDa protein with a structure comprising an 18-kDa ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) domain at the C-terminus (amino acids 403-574), and a 46-kDa N-terminal domain (amino acids 1-402) that contains, from the translation start site, a RING finger domain, two predicted B-Boxes, and a coiled-coil protein interaction motif, which places it among the TRIM (tripartite motif) or RBCC (RING, B-Box, coiled-coil) protein families. Recombinant ARD1 (amino acids 1-574) or its RING finger domain (amino acids 1-110) produced polyubiquitylated proteins when incubated in vitro with a mammalian E1, an E2 enzyme (UbcH6 or UbcH5a, -5b, or -5c), ATP, and ubiquitin. Via its C-terminal ARF domain, recombinant ARD1 binds guanine nucleotides, through which it can enhance, in a GTP-dependent manner, cholera toxin ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. Unlike ARFs, ARD1, but not its ARF domain, exhibits significant GTPase activity. Hydrolysis of GTP bound to the C-terminal ARF domain was stimulated by addition of the 46-kDa N-terminal domain (amino acids 1-402) via its GTPase activating protein (GAP) activity. The rate of GDP dissociation from the C-terminal ARF domain in ARD1, is slowed by the adjacent 15 amino acids, which act as a GDP-dissociation inhibitor (GDI) domain. Cytohesin-1, known already as a guanine nucleotide-exchange factor (GEF) ARF activator, also specifically activated recombinant human ARD1, via activation of the ARF domain. Overexpressed ARD1 fusion proteins were associated with structures resembling lysosomes and Golgi membranes, as well as the nucleus, in different types of cells, and sequences potentially responsible for the intracellular localizations were identified.
