RIPX (Rap 2-interacting protein x), also known as RUFY3 (RUN and FYVE domain containing 3) or Singar1, is a 469 amino acid protein that contains one RUN (RPIP8, unc-14 and NESCA) domain and is highly expressed in brain tissue. Localized to both the cell projection and to the lamellipodia and filopodia of growth cones, RIPX is thought to play a role neuronal development, specifically by mediating the formation of single axons, a process that maintains optimal neuronal polarity. RIPX interacts with PI 3-kinase p110å and PI 3-kinase p85å and, via this interaction, may be able to inhibit the formation of additional axons during neuronal maturation. Two isoforms of RIPX (one of which is partially phosphorylated) exist due to alternative splicing events.
