“…It is known that PREX1 is phosphorylated in the cell, demonstrated by the fact that after gel electrophoresis, it is detected as multiple bands that are collapsed by both -phosphatase and protein phosphatase 1␣ (PP1␣) (30,31). -Phosphatase and PP1␣ dephosphorylation of PREX1 increase GEF activity, which is consistent with reports showing that PKA phosphorylation of PREX1 leads to a reduction in its in vitro GEF activity both in vitro and in cells (31,32,49). Importantly, PREX1 is phosphorylated after the activation of specific RTKs and GPCRs, indicating that the regulation of PREX1 by phosphorylation has a role in these signaling pathways.…”
