    basic FUNCTION
  • regulating the basal apoptosis of cells through the JNK pathway
  • promotes inactivation of CDC42, a small GTPase whose activation at the leading edge by guanine nucleotide exchange factors is critical for cell migration (Shen 2008)
  • inhibitor of active-state small Rho GTPases and counter-regulatory mediator for tubule formation
  • implicated in the regulation of cell motility, adhesion, proliferation, and apoptosis (Li 2009)
  • regulates the vimentin network through the CDC42-PAK pathway in smooth muscle cells during 5-hydroxytryptamine stimulation (Li 2009)

    ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
    Cdc42GAP-/- mouse embryonic fibroblasts and/or tissues display reduced population doubling, significantly dampened DNA damage repair activity after DNA-damaging agent treatment, accumulated genomic abnormalities, and induction of p53, p16Ink4a, p21Cip1, and senescence-associated beta-galactosidase expressions (Wang 2007)
