HIV protein: Nef
Interaction type: inhibits
Description: The Nef/hnRNPK/PKC-delta/Hck protein complex activates Pak2 activity but inhibits Pak1 activity, which induces paxillin phosphorylation on Ser272/274 and regulates paxillin/TACE association and secretion

HIV protein: Nef
Interaction type: interacts with
Description: HIV-1 Nef induces phosphorylation of MEK1 at position serine 298, which depends on Pak and Rac activity. The SH3 region mutation 72PXXP/AXXA75 in Nef results in loss of Pak association which decreases Nef-induced MEK1 phosphorylation
