Template:PBB Dock8 (Dedicator of cytokinesis 8), also known as Zir3, is a large (~190 kDa) protein involved in intracellular signalling networks.[1] It is a member of the DOCK-C subfamily of the DOCK family of guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) which function as activators of small G proteins.

Discovery

Dock8 was identified during a yeast two hybrid (YTH) screen for proteins that interact with the Rho family small G protein Cdc42.[2] Subsequent northern blot analysis revealed high levels of Dock8 expression in the placenta, lung, kidney and pancreas as well as lower levels in the heart, brain and skeletal muscle.

Function

Dock8 shares the same core domain arrangement as all other DOCK proteins, with a DHR2 domain which, in other proteins, contains GEF activity and a DHR1 domain known, in other proteins, to interact with phospholipids. In the YTH system Dock8 was reported to interact with both Rac1 and Cdc42. However, no stable interaction between Dock8 and these small G proteins was observed in a GST-pulldown assay. This may be due to the fact many DOCK-G protein interactions require the presence of adaptor proteins to stabilise the complex and thus facilitate nucleotide exchange.[3]

Dock8 in disease

Despite the fact that little is known about the cellular role of Dock8 its importance has been highlighted in several studies which have identified distruption of the DOCK8 gene in disease. Deletion and reduced expression of Dock8 have been reported in a human lung cancer cell line[4] and Dock8 was also identified as a putative candidate gene associated with progression of gliomas.[5] Interestingly, Dock8 has been reported to be disrupted in two unrelated patients with mental retardation.[6]

Autosomal recessive DOCK8 deficiency is associated with a variant of combined immunodeficiency. This variant of Hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome (HIES) was first described in 2004 [7] and was now found to have a genetic mutation in the DOCK8 gene.[8]
