The RhoGEF domain of AKAP-Lbc (AKAP13) catalyses nucleotide exchange on RhoA and is involved in development of cardiac hypertrophy. The RhoGEF activity of AKAP-Lbc has also been implicated in cancer.

Comparison to a structure of the isolated AKAP-Lbc DH domain revealed a change in conformation of the N-terminal 'GEF switch' region upon binding to RhoA.

Publication Abstract from PubMedThe RhoGEF domain of AKAP-Lbc (AKAP13) catalyses nucleotide exchange on RhoA and is involved in development of cardiac hypertrophy. The RhoGEF activity of AKAP-Lbc has also been implicated in cancer. We have determined the X-ray crystal structure of the complex between RhoA:GDP and the AKAP-Lbc RhoGEF (DH-PH) domain to 2.1 A resolution. The structure reveals important differences compared to related RhoGEF proteins such as Leukemia-associated RhoGEF. Nucleotide exchange assays comparing the activity of the DH-PH domain to the DH domain alone showed no role for the PH domain in nucleotide exchange, which is explained by the RhoA:AKAP-Lbc structure.
