== Function == | |||
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/DOCK7_HUMAN DOCK7_HUMAN] Functions as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF), which activates Rac1 and Rac3 Rho small GTPases by exchanging bound GDP for free GTP. Does not have a GEF activity for CDC42. Required for STMN1 'Ser-15' phosphorylation during axon formation and consequently for neuronal polarization (PubMed:16982419). Has a role in pigmentation (By similarity). Involved in the regulation of cortical neurogenesis through the control of radial glial cells (RGCs) proliferation versus differentiation; negatively regulates the basal-to-apical interkinetic nuclear migration of RGCs by antagonizing the microtubule growth-promoting function of TACC3 (By similarity).[UniProtKB:Q8R1A4]<ref>PMID:16982419</ref> | |||

== Publication Abstract from PubMed == | |||
The Dedicator Of CytoKinesis (DOCK) family of atypical guanine nucleotide exchange factors activates the Rho family GTPases Rac and/or Cdc42 through DOCK homology region 2 (DHR-2). Previous structural analyses of the DHR-2 domains of DOCK2 and DOCK9 have shown that they preferentially bind Rac1 and Cdc42, respectively; however, the molecular mechanism by which DHR-2 distinguishes between these GTPases is unclear. Here we report the crystal structure of the Cdc42-bound form of the DOCK7 DHR-2 domain showing dual specificity for Rac1 and Cdc42. The structure revealed increased substrate tolerance of DOCK7 at the interfaces with switch 1 and residue 56 of Cdc42. Furthermore, molecular dynamics simulations showed a closed-to-open conformational change in the DOCK7 DHR-2 domain between the Cdc42- and Rac1-bound states by lobe B displacement. Our results suggest that lobe B acts as a sensor for identifying different switch 1 conformations and explain how DOCK7 recognizes both Rac1 and Cdc42. | |||
