About Dock8

Summary

Enables guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. Involved in dendritic cell migration; positive regulation of T cell migration; and positive regulation of establishment of T cell polarity. Acts upstream of or within immunological synapse formation and negative regulation of T cell apoptotic process. Located in cell leading edge. Is expressed in central nervous system; retina; and thymus primordium. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in atopic dermatitis; Bacterial infectious disease; hyper IgE recurrent Infection syndrome 2; immune dysregulation-polyendocrinopathy-enteropathy-X-linked syndrome; and viral infectious disease (multiple). Orthologous to human DOCK8 (dedicator of cytokinesis 8). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
