Vav1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity and phosphorylation-dependent protein binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including integrin-mediated signaling pathway; neutrophil chemotaxis; and positive regulation of natural killer cell mediated cytotoxicity. Located in cell-cell junction. Is expressed in several structures, including extraembryonic component; hemolymphoid system; liver; pancreas; and trunk mesenchyme. Orthologous to human VAV1 (vav guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Vav1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
