PAK proteins are critical effectors that link Rho GTPases to cytoskeleton reorganization and nuclear signaling. PAK proteins serve as targets for the small GTP binding proteins Cdc42 and RAC and have been implicated in a wide range of biological activities. PAK3 forms an activated complex with GTP-bound RAS-like (P21), CDC2 and RAC1 proteins which then catalyzes a variety of targets. It may be necessary for dendritic development and for the rapid cytoskeletal reorganization in dendritic spines associated with synaptic plasticity. A point mutation in this gene has been linked to nonsyndromic X-linked mental retardation.Synonyms: Beta-PAK, OPHN3, Oligophrenin-3, PAK 3, PAK beta, PAK-3, Serine/threonine-protein kinase PAK 3, p21-activated kinase 3
