Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionaex-3 encodes a guanine nucleotide exchange factor for the rab-3 GTPase that is orthologous to human MAP kinase activating protein containing death domain (MADD, OMIM:603584); AEX-3 is required for intracellular vesicle trafficking as well as synaptic vesicle release and interacts with CAB-1 and RAB-3 to regulate separate pathways for neural activities such as defecation and male mating, respectively; AEX-3 is also required for egg laying and locomotion; AEX-3 is expressed in nearly all neurons.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00001256

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. Involved in several processes, including egg-laying behavior; mating; and positive regulation of transport. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Expressed in neurons. Used to study alcohol use disorder. Is an ortholog of human MADD (MAP kinase activating death domain).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943
