Facts about Engulfment and cell motility protein 1.
Was initially proposed to be required in complex with DOCK1 to activate Rac Rho small GTPases. May improve the guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) activity of DOCK1.

Widely expressed, with a higher expression in the spleen and placenta.
Cytoplasm. Cell membrane. Translocation to plasma membrane seems to be mediated by DOCK1 and CRK.
