RhoGEF complexed with Netrin-1-DCC induces guanine nucleotide exchange by Cdc42, activating it. Activated Cdc42 activates N-WASP, which promotes the nucleation of F-actin via the Arp2/3 complex. Netrin-1, via DCC, influences cellular motility by regulating actin-based membrane extension through the activation of Cdc42.
