General annotation (Comments)

Function

Functions as a RAC1 guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF), activating Rac proteins by exchanging bound GDP for free GTP. Its activity is synergistically activated by phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate and the beta gamma subunits of heterotrimeric G protein. Mediates the activation of RAC1 in a PI3K-dependent manner. May be an important mediator of Rac signaling, acting directly downstream of both G protein-coupled receptors and phosphoinositide 3-kinase. Ref.1 Ref.5 Ref.6

Subunit structure

Interacts with RAC1.

Tissue specificity

Isoform 1 is highly expressed in skeletal muscle, heart and placenta, absent from peripheral blood leukocytes. Isoform 2 is expressed in skeletal muscle, kidney, small intestine, and placenta. Isoform 3 is expressed in the heart. Ref.1

Domain

PH domain confers substrate specificity and recognition. Able to discriminate between RAC1, RHOA, and CDC42.

DH domain alone was unable to confer substrate specificity and recognition.

Sequence similarities

Contains 2 DEP domains.

Contains 1 DH (DBL-homology) domain.

Contains 2 PDZ (DHR) domains.

Contains 1 PH domain.

Sequence caution

The sequence AK024079 differs from that shown. Reason: Frameshift at position 1134.

The sequence BAB14375.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation.

Alternative products

This entry describes 3 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform 1 (identifier: Q70Z35-1)
