Focal adhesions are foci for tyrosine-based signal transduction via GIV/Girdin and G proteins

GIV is a guanine-nucleotide exchange factor and a bona fide metastasis-related protein. It is found, unexpectedly, that focal adhesions are the major foci for GIV-dependent signaling and that GIV modulates integrin-FAK signaling via activation of G proteins. It is also shown how this phenomenon is a...
