Primary Identifier | IPR035532 | Type | Domain |
Short Name | DBS_SH3 |
description | This entry represents the SH3 domain of DBS.DBS, also called MCF2L or OST, functions as a Rho GTPase guanine nucleotide exchange factor (RhoGEF), facilitating the exchange of GDP and GTP. It was originally isolated from a cDNA screen for sequences that cause malignant growth. It plays roles in regulating clathrin-mediated endocytosis and cell migration through its activation of Rac1 and Cdc42 [, ]. Depending on cell type, DBS can also activate RhoA and RhoG [, ]. DBS contains a Sec14-like domain [], spectrin-like repeats, a RhoGEF or Dbl homology (DH) domain, a Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain [], and an SH3 domain. |
