Also known as DOCK180ced5
Summary
DOCK1 (dedicator of cytokinesis 1, HGNC:2987) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 10q26.2, encoding Dedicator of cytokinesis protein 1 (Q14185). Involved in cytoskeletal rearrangements required for phagocytosis of apoptotic cells and cell motility.
This gene encodes a member of the dedicator of cytokinesis protein family. Dedicator of cytokinesis proteins act as guanine nucleotide exchange factors for small Rho family G proteins. The encoded protein regulates the small GTPase Rac, thereby influencing several biological processes, including phagocytosis and cell migration. Overexpression of this gene has also been associated with certain cancers. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Function. Involved in cytoskeletal rearrangements required for phagocytosis of apoptotic cells and cell motility. Along with DOCK1, mediates CRK/CRKL regulation of epithelial and endothelial cell spreading and migration on type IV collagen. Functions as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF), which activates Rac Rho small GTPases by exchanging bound GDP for free GTP. Its GEF activity may be enhanced by ELMO1.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with the SH3 domains of CRK and NCK2 via multiple sites. Interacts with nucleotide-free RAC1 via its DOCKER domain. Interacts with ELMO1, ELMO2 and probably ELMO3 via its SH3 domain. Interacts with ADGRB1. Identified in a complex with AUTS2 and ELMO2.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Membrane.
Tissue specificity. Highly expressed in placenta, lung, kidney, pancreas and ovary. Expressed at intermediate level in thymus, testes and colon.
Domain organisation. The DOCKER domain is necessary and sufficient for the GEF activity.
Similarity. Belongs to the DOCK family.
