Abstract excerpt
RasGRPs (guanine-nucleotide-releasing proteins) are exchange factors for membrane-bound GTPases. All RasGRP family members contain C1 domains which, in other proteins, bind DAG (diacylglycerol) and thus mediate the proximal signal-transduction events induced by this lipid second messenger. The presence of C1 domains suggests that all RasGRPs could be regulated by membrane translocation driven by C1-DAG...
