Acts as guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for RhoA GTPases.
Itsactivation induces formation of actin stress fibers.
Also act as a GEF for RAC1, inducing production of reactive oxygen species (ROS).
Does not act as a GEF for CDC42.
The G protein beta-gamma (Gbetagamma) subunits of heterotrimeric G proteins act as activators, explaining the integrated effects of LPA and other G-protein coupled receptor agonists on actin stress fiber formation, cell shape change and ROS production.
Required for EPB41L4Bmediated regulation of the circumferential actomyosin belt in epithelial cells (PubMed:22006950).
