Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** DOCK4 is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) that activates small GTPases, including Rac1, Rac2, and Rho, by facilitating their GTP binding and hydrolysis. It is also involved in the regulation of actin cytoskeleton dynamics, cell migration, and cell growth. DOCK4 is primarily expressed in cells of the immune system, including microglia, macrophages, and astrocytes. Its expression is also detected in neurons, epithelial cells, and smooth muscle cells. **Pathways and Functions:** DOCK4 is involved in several signaling pathways, including: 1. **Rho GTPase signaling pathway:** DOCK4 regulates the activity of small GTPases, including Rac1, Rac2, and Rho, which are essential for cell migration, cytoskeleton organization, and cell growth. 2. **Cell migration:** DOCK4 is involved in the regulation of cell migration, including the migration of immune cells, such as macrophages and microglia. 3. **Cytoskeleton organization:** DOCK4 regulates the organization of the actin cytoskeleton, which is essential for cell migration, cell growth, and cell division. 4. **Immune response:** DOCK4 is involved in the regulation of immune responses, including the regulation of cytokine production and the activation of immune cells. 5. **Hemostasis:** DOCK4 is involved in the regulation of hemostasis, including the regulation of platelet activation and aggregation. **Clinical Significance:** DOCK4 has been implicated in various immune-related disorders, including: 1. **Autoimmune diseases:** DOCK4 has been shown to play a role in the regulation of immune responses in autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. 2. **Cancer:** DOCK4 has been implicated in the regulation of cell migration and invasion in cancer, including breast, lung, and colon cancer. 3. **Neurological disorders:** DOCK4 has been implicated in the regulation of immune responses in neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. 4. **Inflammatory disorders:** DOCK4 has been shown to play a role in the regulation of inflammatory responses in disorders, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In conclusion, DOCK4 is a multifunctional protein that plays a crucial role in various cellular processes, including cell migration, signaling, and immune response. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various immune-related disorders, highlighting the need for further research into the role of DOCK4 in human disease.
