rap1 GTPase-GDP dissociation stimulator 1; SMG GDS protein; SMG P21 stimulatory GDP/GTP exchange protein; exchange factor smgGDS (RAP1GDS1)

Function: - guanine nucleotide exchange factor - stimulates GDP/GTP exchange reaction of a group of small GTP-binding proteins (G proteins) including rap1a/rap1b, RhoA, RhoB & KRas, by stimulating dissociation of GDP from & the subsequent binding of GTP to each small G protein Structure: contains 5 ARM repeats Alternative splicing: named isoforms=2
