Target data

Function

Acts as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for RHOA, RAC1 and CDC42 GTPases. Regulates cell migration and adhesion assembly and disassembly through a RAC1, PI3K, RHOA and AKT1-dependent mechanism. Increases both RAC1 and CDC42 activity, but decreases the amount of active RHOA. Required for MMP9 up-regulation via the JNK signaling pathway in colorectal tumor cells. Involved in tumor angiogenesis and may play a role in intestinal adenoma formation and tumor progression.

Activity summary

Asef2 also known as SPATA13 is a Rac-specific guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) that primarily influences actin cytoskeleton dynamics. It has a mass of approximately 91 kDa and contains a DH-PH domain arrangement. Asef2 is expressed in various tissues including the brain kidney and testis. Its role involves modulating the activity of small GTPases particularly Rac1 which are critical for cellular morphological adjustments.

Biological function summary

In the context of cellular dynamics Asef2 facilitates the reorganization of the cytoskeleton by promoting actin filament assembly and stability. It acts within the context of protein complexes that regulate cell migration and adhesion. Asef2's function influences cellular processes like neurite outgrowth and cell junction assembly thereby supporting cell motility and intercellular communication.

Pathways

The function of Asef2 integrates into signaling cascades that control cytoskeletal architecture and cell movement. Asef2 prominently interacts with pathways involving the Wnt signaling pathway where it works with proteins such as APC and β-catenin to influence cell division and migration processes. Additionally it plays a role in the integrin signaling pathway coordinating with proteins like paxillin to affect adhesion and motility.

Associated diseases and disorders

Asef2 displays relevance in cancer metastasis and neurodegenerative disorders. Its aberrant expression associates with the progression of certain cancer types including colorectal cancer where it may enable cancerous cells to invade and metastasize. In neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's disease Asef2's interaction with tau protein suggests its involvement in neuronal dysfunction and degradation. Through these interactions Asef2 may contribute to both the development and progression of these pathological conditions.
