Detected in mammary gland (PubMed:9627117) . Detected in heart (at protein level) (PubMed:11546812) . Expressed as a 5.3 kb transcript in hematopoietic cells, skeletal muscle, lung, heart, estrogen-responsive reproductive tissues, including breast ductal epithelium. Also found in testis and breast cancer cell lines. Predominantly expressed as a 10 kb transcript in the heart and at lower levels in the lung, placenta, kidney, pancreas, skeletal muscle and liver. Transcripts of between 6-9 kb are also expressed in myeloid and lymphoid lineages, a variety of epithelial tissues, and in skeletal muscle.

Scaffold protein that plays an important role in assembling signaling complexes downstream of several types of G protein-coupled receptors. Activates RHOA in response to signaling via G protein-coupled receptors via its function as Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor (PubMed:11546812, PubMed:15229649, PubMed:23090968, PubMed:25186459, PubMed:24993829) . May also activate other Rho family members (PubMed:11546812) . Part of a kinase signaling complex that links ADRA1A and ADRA1B adrenergic receptor signaling to the activation of downstream p38 MAP kinases, such as MAPK11 and MAPK14 (PubMed:17537920, PubMed:23716597, PubMed:21224381) . Part of a signaling complex that links ADRA1B signaling to the activation of RHOA and IKBKB/IKKB, leading to increased NF-kappa-B transcriptional activity (PubMed:23090968) . Part of a RHOA-dependent signaling cascade that mediates responses to lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a signaling molecule that activates G-protein coupled receptors and potentiates transcriptional activation of the glucocorticoid receptor NR3C1 (PubMed:16469733) . Part of a signaling cascade that stimulates MEF2C-dependent gene expression in response to lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) (By similarity) . Part of a signaling pathway that activates MAPK11 and/or MAPK14 and leads to increased transcription activation of the estrogen receptors ESR1 and ESR2 (PubMed:9627117, PubMed:11579095) . Part of a signaling cascade that links cAMP and EGFR signaling to BRAF signaling and to PKA- mediated phosphorylation of KSR1, leading to the activation of downstream MAP kinases, such as MAPK1 or MAPK3 (PubMed:21102438) . Functions as scaffold protein that anchors cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) and PRKD1. This promotes activation of PRKD1, leading to increased phosphorylation of HDAC5 and ultimately cardiomyocyte hypertrophy (By similarity) . Has no guanine nucleotide exchange activity on CDC42, Ras or Rac (PubMed:11546812) . Required for normal embryonic heart development, and in particular for normal sarcomere formation in the developing cardiomyocytes (By similarity) . Plays a role in cardiomyocyte growth and cardiac hypertrophy in response to activation of the beta-adrenergic receptor by phenylephrine or isoproterenol (PubMed:17537920, PubMed:23090968) . Required for normal adaptive cardiac hypertrophy in response to pressure overload (PubMed:23716597) . Plays a role in osteogenesis (By similarity) .
