Skeletal muscle and kidney‐enriched inositol polyphosphate phosphatase ( SKIP ), a PIP 3 phosphatase, has been implicated in the regulation of insulin signaling in skeletal muscle. SKIP interacts with Pak1 and glucose‐regulated protein 78 ( GRP 78), both of which are necessary for the regulation of insulin signaling. In this study, we showed that GRP 78 directly binds to the SKIP C‐terminal homology ( SKICH ) domain of SKIP and that this binding is necessary for the localization of SKIP at the ER . In addition, in vitro binding analysis showed that GRP 78 and Pak1 competitively bind to SKIP . Taken together, these findings suggest a model by which GRP 78 regulates intracellular localization of SKIP and how SKIP binds to Pak1 on insulin stimulation.
