Background:

A large number of low molecular weight GTP-binding proteins of the Ras superfamily have been identified in eukaryotic cells; they regulate many fundamental processes such as cell growth, vesicle traffic and cytoskeletal organization. GTPase-activating proteins accelerate the intrinsic rate of GTP hydrolysis of Ras-related proteins, resulting in downregulation of their active form. Rac 1 is activated in a type I interferon (IFN) dependent manner; its function is required for downstream engagement of the p38 MAP kinase pathway. The p38 MAP kinase plays an essential role in IFN-dependent transcriptional regulation. The serine/threonine kinase Akt, of the phospho-inositide 3-kinase signal transduction pathway phosphorylates serine 71 of Rac 1.
