Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
additional information association with the actin cytoskeleton causes a drastic increase in the autophosphorylation activity of MHCK A, which is then activated Dictyostelium discoideum

Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
cells overexpressing GFP-GEF have both unphosphorylated and autophosphorylated MHCK A Dictyostelium discoideum

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information overexpression of the RasGEF Q GEF domain activates RasB, causes enhanced recruitment of MHCK A to the cortex, and leads to cytokinesis defects in suspension phenocopying cells expressing constitutively active RasB, and myosin-null mutants, phenotype, overview. Cells overexpressing the GEF domain show at least 2fold higher levels of MHCK A associated with the cytoskeletal fractions Dictyostelium discoideum

Localization

Localization Comment Organism GeneOntology No. Textmining
