Protein function (UniProt)

Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1

Seems to play a role in the regulation of RhoA GTPase by guanine nucleotide-binding alpha-12 (GNA12) and alpha-13 (GNA13) subunits (PubMed:9641915, PubMed:9641916). Acts as a GTPase-activating protein (GAP) for GNA12 and GNA13, and as guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for RhoA GTPase (PubMed:30521495, PubMed:8810315, PubMed:9641915, PubMed:9641916). Activated G alpha 13/GNA13 stimulates the RhoGEF activity through interaction with the RGS-like domain (PubMed:9641916). This GEF activity is inhibited by binding to activated GNA12 (PubMed:9641916). Mediates angiotensin-2-induced RhoA activation (PubMed:20098430). In lymphoid follicles, may trigger activation of GNA13 as part of S1PR2-dependent signaling pathway that leads to inhibition of germinal center (GC) B cell growth and migration outside the GC niche
