VHS domain family, GGA subfamily; GGA (Golgi-localized, Gamma-ear-containing, Arf-binding) comprise a subfamily of ubiquitously expressed, monomeric, motif-binding cargo/clathrin adaptor proteins. The VHS domain has a superhelical structure similar to the structure of the ARM (Armadillo) repeats and is present at the N-termini of proteins. GGA proteins have a multidomain structure consisting of an N-terminal VHS domain linked by a short proline-rich linker to a GAT (GGA and TOM) domain, which is followed by a long flexible linker to the C-terminal appendage, GAE (gamma-adaptin ear) domain. The VHS domain of GGA proteins binds to the acidic-cluster dileucine (DxxLL) motif found on the cytoplasmic tails of cargo proteins trafficked between the trans-Golgi network and the endosomal system.
