Synonyms:KIAA0521 Background:Acts as guanine nucleotide exchange factor(GEF) for RhoA GTPases. Its activation induces formation of actin stress fibers. Also act as a GEF for RAC1, inducing production of reactive oxygen species(ROS). Does not act as a GEF for CDC42. The G protein beta-gamma(Gbetagamma) subunits of heterotrimeric G proteins act as activators, explaining the integrated effects of LPA and other G-protein coupled receptor agonists on actin stress fiber formation, cell shape change and ROS production. Required for EPB41L4B-mediated regulation of the circumferential actomyosin belt in epithelial cells(PubMed:22006950).
