Descriptions

The Vav family is a group of tyrosine phosphorylation-dependent guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) that activate members of the Rac and Rho families of guanosine triphosphatases (GTPases) downstream of protein tyrosine kinases. When the tyrosine residues within the acidic (Ac) region are non-phosphorylated, the CH domain and Ac region occlude the GTPase-binding site within DH domain. The interaction is stabilized by the interaction between the hydroxyl group of Tyr174 within Ac region and GTPase binding site as well as the interaction between CH domain and DH-PH domains. The Y174F mutant displays constitutive and phosphorylation-independent catalytic activity. In addition to the N-terminal autoinhibitory regions, the truncation of C-terminal SH3 domain also relives the autoinhibition. C-terminal SH3 domain interacts with DH-PH domains and the intramolecular interaction occludes the GTPase-binding site of DH domain. (Description from P27870)

2 GO annotations of molecular function

Name Definition
guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity Stimulates the exchange of GDP to GTP on a signaling GTPase, changing its conformation to its active form. Guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) act by stimulating the release of guanosine diphosphate (GDP) to allow binding of guanosine triphosphate (GTP), which is more abundant in the cell under normal cellular physiological conditions.
metal ion binding Binding to a metal ion.

5 GO annotations of biological process

Name Definition
intracellular signal transduction The process in which a signal is passed on to downstream components within the cell, which become activated themselves to further propagate the signal and finally trigger a change in the function or state of the cell.
negative regulation of Notch signaling pathway Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the Notch signaling pathway.
positive regulation of locomotion Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of locomotion of a cell or organism.
positive regulation of nematode male tail tip morphogenesis Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of nematode male tail tip morphogenesis.
regulation of vulval development Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of development of the vulva. Vulval development is the process whose specific outcome is the progression of the egg-laying organ of female and hermaphrodite nematodes over time, from its formation to the mature structure. In nematodes, the vulva is formed from ventral epidermal cells during larval stages to give rise to a fully formed vulva in the adult.
