Summary
RAPGEF1 (Rap guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1, HGNC:4568) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 9q34.13, encoding Rap guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1 (Q13905). Guanine nucleotide-releasing protein that binds to SH3 domain of CRK and GRB2/ASH.
This gene encodes a human guanine nucleotide exchange factor. It transduces signals from CRK by binding the SH3 domain of CRK, and activating several members of the Ras family of GTPases. This signaling cascade that may be involved in apoptosis, integrin-mediated signal transduction, and cell transformation. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but the full-length nature of some variants has not been determined.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 26 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
