ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) like 7 (ARL7, also named ARL4C) is a member of ARL family and recent studies showed that it is involved in the AI-dependent cholesterol secretion process. Yet its biological function remains largely unknown. Using a MALDI-TOF/MS analysis, we identified alpha-tubulin interacted with ARL7. The interaction was confirmed by GST pull-down assay and co-immunoprecipitation in renal carcinoma cell 786-O in which we found the endogenous ARL7 is expressed. This is the second ARL member found interacting with tubulin after ARL8. In addition, ARL7Q72L, a GTP-binding form, promoted the transferrin transport from early endosome to recycling endosome significantly. The above data suggested that ARL7 might modulate the intracellular vesicular transport via interaction with microtubules.
