Description

RAP1GDS1 encodes a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) that stimulates the dissociation of GDP from RAP1A and RAP1B, promoting GTP binding and activation. It plays a role in cell adhesion, migration, and signal transduction. The gene is located on chromosome 4q23 and is associated with various cancers.

Protein Summary

RAP1GDS1 (SmgGDS) is a 558-amino acid protein that functions as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor for RAP1 and other small GTPases. It contains armadillo-like repeats and localizes to the cytoplasm and plasma membrane. The protein regulates cell adhesion, migration, and proliferation. Mutations and overexpression are linked to cancer progression.
