Mouse Rho Guanine Nucleotide Exchange Factor 4,ARHGEF4 ELI

Acts as 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 adhesion (By similarity).

Required for MMP9 up-regulation via the JNK signaling pathway in colorectal tumor cells.

Involved in tumor angiogenesis and may play a role in intestinal adenoma formation and tumor progression.
