Rac1 is involved in the regulation of cytoskeletal organization, cell adhesion, migration and morphological changes[1]. Rac2 is expressed in hematopoietic cells exclusively[2]. Rac3 binds to a variety of effector proteins to regulate cellular responses like cell spreading and the formation of actin-based protrusions. Disease Mutations in Rac2 are associated with neutrophil immunodeficiency syndrome. Structural highlights The interactions between Rac1 and YpkA are via [3]. . 3D structures of Rac Rac 3D structures
