No experimental confirmation available.; Name=5; IsoId=Q9BZ29-6; Sequence=VSP_017128, VSP_045683, VSP_045684; Note=No experimental confirmation available.;
DomainThe DHR-2 domain is necessary and sufficient for the GEF activity.
FunctionGuanine nucleotide-exchange factor (GEF) that activates CDC42 by exchanging bound GDP for free GTP. Overexpression induces filopodia formation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12172552, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19745154}.
