| Standard Name | GIC2 1 |
|---|---|
| Systematic Name | YDR309C |
| Feature Type | ORF, Verified |
| Description | Redundant rho-like GTPase Cdc42p effector; involved in initiation of budding and cellular polarization; interacts with Cdc42p via the Cdc42/Rac-interactive binding (CRIB) domain and with PI(4,5)P2 via a polybasic region; GIC2 has a paralog, GIC1, that arose from the whole genome duplication (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) |
