background:
The Ras superfamily of GTPases can be subdivided into the Ras, Rho/Rac, Sar, Rab, Arf, Rap and Ran subfamilies, all of which control multiple aspects of cell function, including cytoskeletal rearrangement, nuclear signaling and cell growth. The Ras superfamily of GTPases function as regulated switches that toggle between a biologically active GTP-bound and an inactive GDP-bound form. This activation is catalyzed by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs). RISLC8A (resistance to inhibitors of cholinesterase 8 homolog A), also known as RIC8 or Synembryn-A, is a 530 amino acid cytoplasmic protein that can activate several G-alpha proteins, including G?i-1, G?q and G?o. Functioning as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor, RISLC8A binds to GDP-associated substrates and exchanges bound GDP for free GTP. Via its ability to stimulate protein function, RISLC8A plays a role in regulating mitotic movement and may be involved in receptor-mediated ERK activation. RISLC8A is expressed as three isoforms due to alternative splicing events.

Function:
Guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF), which can activate some, but not all, G-alpha proteins. Able to activate GNAI1, GNAO1 and GNAQ, but not GNAS by exchanging bound GDP for free GTP. Involved in regulation of microtubule pulling forces during mitotic movement of chromosomes by stimulating G(i)-alpha protein, possibly leading to release G(i)-alpha-GTP and NuMA proteins from the NuMA-GPSM2-G(i)-alpha-GDP complex (By similarity). Also acts as an activator for G(q)-alpha (GNAQ) protein by enhancing the G(q)-coupled receptor-mediated ERK activation.

Subunit:
Interacts with GDP-bound G alpha proteins GNAI1, GNAO1 and GNAQ, and with GNA13 with lower affinity. Does not interact with G-alpha proteins when they are in complex with subunits beta and gamma. Interacts (via SLCterminus) with RGS14; the interaction stimulates the dissociation of the complex between RGS14 and the active GTP-bound form of GNAI1 (By similarity).

Subcellular Location:
Cytoplasm. Cell membrane. Colocalizes with RIC8A in CA2 hippocampal neurons. Colocalizes with GNAI1 and RGS14 at the plasma membrane.

Post-translational modifications:
Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR.

Similarity:
Belongs to the synembryn family.
