products description :
Recombinant human VAV1 (73-end) was expressed by baculovirus in Sf9 insect cells using an N-terminal GST tag. Scientific Background: VAV1 is a member of the VAV gene family which are guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) for Rho family GTPases. VAV1 activates pathways leading to actin cytoskeletal rearrangements and transcriptional alterations. VAV1 is important in hematopoiesis, playing a role in T-cell and B-cell development and activation (1). VAV1 has been identified as the specific binding partner of Nef proteins from HIV-1. Co-expression and binding of Nef with VAV1 initiates profound morphological changes, cytoskeletal rearrangements and the JNK/SAPK signaling cascade, leading to increased levels of viral transcription and replication.VAV1 proto-oncogene participates in the signaling processes that mediate the antigen-induced activation of B lymphocytes (2).

ncbi summary :
This gene is a member of the VAV gene family. The VAV proteins are guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) for Rho family GTPases that activate pathways leading to actin cytoskeletal rearrangements and transcriptional alterations. The encoded protein is important in hematopoiesis, playing a role in T-cell and B-cell development and activation. The encoded protein has been identified as the specific binding partner of Nef proteins from HIV-1. Coexpression and binding of these partners initiates profound morphological changes, cytoskeletal rearrangements and the JNK/SAPK signaling cascade, leading to increased levels of viral transcription and replication. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2012]
uniprot summary :
Function: Couples tyrosine kinase signals with the activation of the Rho/Rac GTPases, thus leading to cell differentiation and/or proliferation. Subunit structure: May interact with CCPG1 . By similarity. Interacts with APS, DOCK2, GRB2, GRB3, DOCK2, SLA, TEC and ZNF655/VIK. Interacts with SIAH2; without leading to its degradation. Associates with BLNK, PLCG1, GRB2 and NCK1 in a B-cell antigen receptor-dependent fashion. Interacts with CBLB; which inhibits tyrosine phosphorylation and down-regulates activity. Interacts with SHB and CLNK . By similarity. Interacts with THEMIS2. Interacts with HCK . By similarity. Interacts with NEK3 and this interaction is prolactin-dependent. Interacts with ITK. Interacts with PTK2B/PYK2. Interacts (via SH2 domain) with SYK. Interacts with ANKRD54 . By similarity. Ref.10 Ref.11 Ref.12 Ref.13 Ref.15 Ref.16 Ref.17 Ref.18 Ref.19 Ref.21 Ref.22.
