General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function non-receptor tyrosine kinase Fer is able to phosphorylate RhoGDIalpha, regulator of the small GTPase Rac, and form a direct protein complex with it. This interaction is mediated by the C-terminal end of RhoGDIalpha. Tyrosine phosphorylation of RhoGDIalpha by Fer prevents subsequent binding of Rac to RhoGDIalpha, but once a RhoGDIalpha-Rac complex is formed, the Fer kinase is not able to cause Rac release through tyrosine phosphorylation of preformed RhoGDIalpha-Rac complexes Homo sapiens
