Preparation and Storage

Background: DOCK1

DOCK1 (Dedicator of cytokinesis protein 1) is a member of the DOCK-A family, DOCK180 superfamily of proteins. Although its predicted molecular weight is 215 kDa, it runs anomalously at 180-190 kDa in SDS-PAGE. It is generally found in non-hematopoietic cell types, and transduces signals from cell membrane receptors by regulating the activity of the GTPases Rac-1 and -2. This impacts both cell migration and phagocytosis. Human DOCK1 is 1865 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains one protein-interaction SH3 domain (aa 9-70), a DHR-1 region that localizes DOCK1 to the plasma membrane and PI3 kinase (aa 422-664), a DHR-2 domain that binds to nucleotide-free GTPases and shows GEF activity (aa 1111-1616), and two SH3-binding motifs (aa 1799-1843). There are four potential phosphorylation sites and one isoform variant that shows a start site at Met114. Over aa 422-666, human DOCK1 shares 97% aa identity with mouse DOCK1.
