Protein name Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 4 (APC-stimulated guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1) (Asef) (Asef1)
Protein function Acts as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for RHOA, RAC1 and CDC42 GTPases. Binding of APC may activate RAC1 GEF activity. The APC-ARHGEF4 complex seems to be involved in cell migration as well as in E-cadherin-mediated cell-cell adhesi
