Overview

PH and SEC7 domain-containing protein 1 (PSD) is a protein characterized by the presence of a pleckstrin homology (PH) domain and a SEC7 domain, functioning as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) specifically for ARF6, a member of the ADP-ribosylation factor family of small GTPases. The protein plays key roles in regulating cytoskeletal dynamics, membrane trafficking, and neuronal development, such as axon growth and branching, by mediating guanine nucleotide exchange on ARF6. Given these cellular roles, PSD may contribute to neuronal morphogenesis and signaling, and genetic evidence suggests involvement in susceptibility to autism.
