Rac Family Small GTPase 2

This gene encodes a member of the Ras superfamily of small guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-metabolizing proteins. The encoded protein localizes to the plasma membrane, where it regulates diverse processes, such as secretion, phagocytosis, and cell polarization. Activity of this protein is also involved in the generation of reactive oxygen species. Mutations in this gene are associated with neutrophil immunodeficiency syndrome. There is a pseudogene for this gene on chromosome 6. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]

Rac Family Small GTPase 2; Ras-Related C3 Botulinum Toxin Substrate 2 (Rho Family, Small GTP Binding Protein Rac2); Small G Protein; P21-Rac2; Gx; Ras-Related C3 Botulinum Toxin Substrate 3 (Rho Family, Small GTP-Binding Protein Rac2); Ras-Related C3 Botulinum Toxin Substrate 2; HSPC022; EN-7;

Plasma membrane-associated small GTPase which cycles between an active GTP-bound and inactive GDP-bound state. In active state binds to a variety of effector proteins to regulate cellular responses, such as secretory processes, phagocytose of apoptotic cells and epithelial cell polarization. Augments the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by NADPH oxidase.

Immunodeficiency 73A with defective neutrophil chemotaxis and leukocytosis (IMD73A):
An autosomal dominant immunologic disorder characterized by onset of recurrent infections in early infancy, leukocytosis, neutrophilia, invasive infections, and poor wound healing.
Immunodeficiency 73B with defective neutrophil chemotaxis and lymphopenia (IMD73B):
An autosomal dominant immunologic disorder characterized by respiratory infections, cellulitis, severe invasive infections, B- and T-cell lymphopenia, and impaired neutrophil chemotaxis. Disease onset is in infancy or early childhood.
Immunodeficiency 73C with defective neutrophil chemotaxis and hypogammaglobulinemia (IMD73C):
An autosomal recessive immunologic disorder characterized by recurrent respiratory infections, decreased B cells, hypogammaglobulinemia, and impaired neutrophil chemotaxis. Variable features are urticaria, recurrent erythematous plaques, food allergy, arthralgia, bronchiectasis, and lymphadenopathy. In addition, patients suffer from glomerulonephritis, coagulopathy, multiple hormone deficiencies, and abnormalities of neutrophil granules.

(Microbial infection) Glycosylated at Tyr-32 by Photorhabdus asymbiotica toxin PAU_02230. Mono-O-GlcNAcylation by PAU_02230 inhibits downstream signaling by an impaired interaction with diverse regulator and effector proteins of Rac and leads to actin disassembly.
