description
Rac-GEFs operate in a nonredundant manner as downstream effectors of receptor tyrosine kinases to promote ruffle formation, indicative of unique modes of regulation and targeting. Current research is shedding light on the intricate signaling paradigms shaping spatiotemporal activation of the small GTPase Rac during the generation of actin-rich membrane protrusions.
