Description

DOCK10 (dedicator of cytokinesis 10) is a protein-coding gene that encodes a member of the DOCK family of guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs). The protein specifically activates the small GTPase Rac1, playing a key role in cytoskeletal rearrangements, cell migration, and immune cell signaling. DOCK10 is involved in B-cell development and function, and its dysregulation has been implicated in certain cancers and immune disorders.

Mutations & Variants

Hotspot Mutations
Variant Type Frequency Functional Description
p.Arg1098* Nonsense <0.1% Premature truncation, likely loss of function

p.Val1230Ile Missense <0.1% Unknown effect; reported in melanoma
Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Nonsense mutations (e.g., p.Arg1098*) are predicted to cause loss of function by truncating the protein.

Gain of Function (GOF)

No gain-of-function mutations have been conclusively reported for DOCK10.

Dominant Negative (DN)

No dominant-negative mutations have been characterized for DOCK10.

Pathways

• Rac1 signaling pathway
• Regulation of actin cytoskeleton
• Fc gamma R-mediated phagocytosis
• B cell receptor signaling pathway

Protein Summary

DOCK10 is a 219-kDa protein that functions as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for Rac1, a small GTPase involved in cytoskeletal dynamics and cell migration. The protein contains a DHR-2 (DOCK homology region 2) domain responsible for catalytic activity and a DHR-1 domain that binds phospholipids for membrane targeting. DOCK10 is predominantly expressed in lymphoid tissues and is critical for B-cell receptor signaling and immune synapse formation. Alternative splicing generates multiple isoforms.
