  ID: DOCK8_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Dedicator of cytokinesis protein 8;
FUNCTION: Potential guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF). GEF proteins activate some small GTPases by exchanging bound GDP for free GTP (By similarity).
DOMAIN: The DHR-2 domain may mediate some GEF activity (By similarity).
DISEASE: Defects in DOCK8 are the cause of hyperimmunoglobulin E recurrent infection syndrome autosomal recessive (AR-HIES) [MIM:243700]. It is a rare disorder of immunity characterized by immunodeficiency, recurrent infections, eczema, increased serum IgE, eosinophilia and lack of connective tissue and skeletal involvement.
DISEASE: Defects in DOCK8 are the cause of mental retardation autosomal dominant type 2 (MRD2) [MIM:614113]. Mental retardation is characterized by significantly below average general intellectual functioning associated with impairments in adaptative behavior and manifested during the developmental period. Note=A chromosomal aberration disrupting DOCK8 has been found in a patient with mental retardation and ectodermal dysplasia. DOCK8 is disrupted in patients with mental retardation. A balanced translocation, t(X;9) (q13.1;p24).
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the DOCK family.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 DHR-1 domain.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 DHR-2 domain.
SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAG42221.1; Type=Frameshift; Positions=2067, 2083; Sequence=BAB84907.1; Type=Frameshift; Positions=1956; Sequence=CAI46160.1; Type=Erroneous initiation;

ModBase Predicted Comparative 3D Structure on Q8NF50
FrontTopSide
The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.

-  Orthologous Genes in Other Species
  Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
