Supplementary information

MyoGEF also known as Myosin II interacting GEF mechanistically acts as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor that regulates the activation of RhoA by facilitating the exchange of GDP for GTP. MyoGEF weighing approximately 85 kDa is expressed in various tissues with notable presence in muscle and neuronal cells. It specifically localizes to the mitotic spindle and cleavage furrow during cell division indicating its role in cytokinesis.
Biological function summary

MyoGEF participates in controlling the cytoskeleton through its involvement in actin-related processes. These actions are important during cell migration and mitosis where it assists formation and contraction of the actomyosin ring. MyoGEF works in conjunction with other molecules like Myosin II as part of larger protein complexes to manage cellular shape and transport functionalities.

Pathways

MyoGEF functions prominently within the RhoA signaling and cell division pathways. In the RhoA signaling pathway it interacts with Rho kinases and modulates activities involving cytoskeletal dynamics. Through the cell division pathway MyoGEF ensures correct cytokinesis and is linked to proteins such as Ect2 which is essential for proper cell cycle progression.

There is involvement of MyoGEF in cancer progression and neurological disorders. Its dysregulation can be tied to improper cell division contributing to tumorigenesis. Additionally MyoGEF's connection to cytoskeletal abnormalities links it to neurological disorders where interactions with proteins like ROCK1 can lead to disrupted neuronal signaling.

Target data

Guanine nucleotide exchange factor activating the small GTPase RHOA, which, in turn, induces myosin filament formation. Also activates RHOG. Does not activate RAC1, or to a much lower extent than RHOA and RHOG. Part of a functional unit, involving PLEKHG6, MYH10 and RHOA, at the cleavage furrow to advance furrow ingression during cytokinesis. In epithelial cells, required for the formation of microvilli and membrane ruffles on the apical pole. Along with EZR, required for normal macropinocytosis.
