General description

Beta-Pix (ARHGEF7, βPix, COOL) is a Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF). Beta-Pix is a p21-activated protein kinase (PAK)-interacting exchange factor (Pix, COOL, p85SPR) that has been identified as a putative guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for Rac/Cdc42. The variants of Beta-Pix isoforms exhibit different tissue distributions. Beta-Pix-a is expressed ubiquitously in all the tissues examined, and other isoforms are expressed mainly in the central nervous system. PAK, a Ser/Thr kinase, is an important mediator of Rho family activity interacts with Beta-Pix at the SH3 domain of Beta-Pix though its proline rich region. This interaction is thought to affect the GTP hydrolysis rate of Rac and Cdc42.

Cell motility is a tightly regulated phenomenon that supports the accurate formation of organ structure during development and homeostasis, including wound healing and inflammation. Meanwhile, cancer cells exhibit dysregulated motility, which causes spreading and invasion. The Dbl family RhoGEF ARHGEF7/β-PIX

Developing hippocampal neurons undergo rapid synaptogenesis in response to neurotrophic signals to form and refine circuit connections. The adipokine leptin is a satiety factor with neurotrophic actions, which potentiates both glutamatergic and GABAergic synaptogenesis in the hippocampus during neonatal development.
