We review the literature for Ran Binding Protein in the Microtubule-Organizing Center (RanBPM; RanBP9), a 90-kDa protein that possesses many characteristics of a scaffolding protein, including protein-interaction motifs, a cytoskeletal-binding domain, and multiple canonical docking sites for signaling intermediates. We focus on studies that have examined functional interactions between RanBPM and other proteins. These studies suggest that RanBPM provides a platform for the interaction of a variety of signaling proteins, including cell surface receptors, nuclear receptors, nuclear transcription factors, and cytosolic kinases. These studies indicate that RanBPM acts as a scaffolding protein and is important in regulating cellular function in both the immune system and the nervous system.
