Abstract excerpt
beta2-Chimerin is a member of the "non-protein kinase C" intracellular receptors for the second messenger diacylglycerol and the phorbol esters that is yet poorly characterized, particularly in the context of signaling pathways involved in proliferation and cancer progression. beta2-Chimerin possesses a C-terminal Rac-GAP (GTPase-activating protein) domain that accelerates the hydrolysis of GTP from the Rac...
