Plays a role in tyrosine phosphorylation of CBL by linking CBL to the insulin receptor. Required for insulin-stimulated glucose transport. Involved in formation of actin stress fibers and focal adhesions.
Specificity
Natural and recombinant Rat Sorbin and SH3 domain-containing protein 1
Subcellular Location
Cell junction adherens junction Cell membrane Cytoplasm cytoskeleton Cell junction focal adhesion Colocalized with PXN at focal adhesions during myogenic differentiation (By similarity). Colocalizes with actin stress fibers. Also detected at the plasma membrane and in neuronal intranuclear inclusions.
Interacts with the long isoform of MLLT4/afadin and with VCL. MLLT4 and VCL bind to SORBS1 in a competitive manner and do not form a ternary complex. Interacts with ABL1, CBL, CBLB and INPPL1/SHIP2 through the third SH3 domain. Interaction with ABL1 occurs only after insulin stimulation while this has no effect on the interaction with INPPL1. Interacts with the insulin receptor but dissociates from it following insulin stimulation. Also interacts with SCA7, PTK2/p125FAK and flotillin. Interacts (via SH3 domain 2) with PXN.
