Here we show that human colon cancer cells depleted of Rap1GAP are endowed with more aggressive migratory and invasive properties. Silencing Rap1GAP enhanced the migration of confluent and single cells. In the latter, migration distance, velocity, and directionality were increased. Enhanced migration was a consequence of increased endogenous Rap activity as silencing Rap expression selectively abolished the migration of Rap1GAP-depleted cells. ROCK-mediated cell contractility was suppressed in Rap1GAP-depleted cells, which exhibited a spindle-shaped morphology and abundant membrane protrusions. Tumor cells can switch between Rho/ROCK-mediated contractility-based migration and Rac1-mediated mesenchymal motility. Strikingly, the migration of Rap1GAP-depleted, but not control cells required Rac1 activity, suggesting that loss of Rap1GAP alters migratory mechanisms. Inhibition of Rac1 activity restored membrane blebbing and increased ROCK activity in Rap1GAP-depleted cells, suggesting that Rac1 contributes to the suppression of contractility. Collectively, these findings identify Rap1GAP as a critical regulator of aggressive tumor cell behavior and suggest that the level of Rap1GAP expression influences the migratory mechanisms that are operative in tumor cells.","tracks":[{"project":"Glycosmos6-MAT","denotations":[{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":302,"end":307},"obj":"http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/MAT_0000526"}],"attributes":[{"subj":"T1","pred":"source","obj":"Glycosmos6-MAT"}]},{"project":"sentences","denotations":[{"id":"TextSentencer_T1","span":{"begin":0,"end":104},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"TextSentencer_T2","span":{"begin":105,"end":277},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"TextSentencer_T3","span":{"begin":278,"end":408},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"TextSentencer_T4","span":{"begin":409,"end":480},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"TextSentencer_T5","span":{"begin":481,"end":560},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"TextSentencer_T6","span":{"begin":561,"end":725},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"TextSentencer_T7","span":{"begin":726,"end":879},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"TextSentencer_T8","span":{"begin":880,"end":998},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"TextSentencer_T9","span":{"begin":999,"end":1152},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"TextSentencer_T10","span":{"begin":1153,"end":1332},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"TextSentencer_T11","span":{"begin":1333,"end":1556},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":0,"end":104},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T2","span":{"begin":105,"end":277},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T3","span":{"begin":278,"end":408},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T4","span":{"begin":409,"end":480},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T5","span":{"begin":481,"end":560},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T6","span":{"begin":561,"end":725},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T7","span":{"begin":726,"end":879},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T8","span":{"begin":880,"end":998},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T9","span":{"begin":999,"end":1152},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T10","span":{"begin":1153,"end":1332},"obj":"Sentence"},{"id":"T11","span":{"begin":1333,"end":1556},"obj":"Sentence"}],"namespaces":[{"prefix":"_base","uri":"http://pubannotation.org/ontology/tao.owl#"}],"attributes":[{"subj":"TextSentencer_T1","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"TextSentencer_T2","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"TextSentencer_T3","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"TextSentencer_T4","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"TextSentencer_T5","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"TextSentencer_T6","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"TextSentencer_T7","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"TextSentencer_T8","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"TextSentencer_T9","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"TextSentencer_T10","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"TextSentencer_T11","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T1","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T2","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T3","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T4","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T5","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T6","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T7","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T8","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T9","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T10","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"},{"subj":"T11","pred":"source","obj":"sentences"}]},{"project":"DisGeNET","denotations":[{"id":"T0","span":{"begin":333,"end":340},"obj":"gene:5909"},{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":302,"end":314},"obj":"disease:C0007102"},{"id":"T2","span":{"begin":333,"end":340},"obj":"gene:5909"},{"id":"T3","span":{"begin":302,"end":314},"obj":"disease:C0699790"}],"relations":[{"id":"R1","pred":"associated_with","subj":"T0","obj":"T1"},{"id":"R2","pred":"associated_with","subj":"T2","obj":"T3"}],"namespaces":[{"prefix":"gene","uri":"http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/"},{"prefix":"disease","uri":"http://purl.bioontology.org/ontology/MEDLINEPLUS/"}],"attributes":[{"subj":"T0","pred":"source","obj":"DisGeNET"},{"subj":"T1","pred":"source","obj":"DisGeNET"},{"subj":"T2","pred":"source","obj":"DisGeNET"},{"subj":"T3","pred":"source","obj":"DisGeNET"}]},{"project":"Allie","denotations":[{"id":"SS1_23864657_0_0","span":{"begin":63,"end":93},"obj":"expanded"},{"id":"SS2_23864657_0_0","span":{"begin":95,"end":102},"obj":"abbr"},{"id":"SS1_23864657_1_0","span":{"begin":170,"end":200},"obj":"expanded"},{"id":"SS2_23864657_1_0","span":{"begin":202,"end":209},"obj":"abbr"}],"relations":[{"id":"AE1_23864657_0_0","pred":"abbreviatedTo","subj":"SS1_23864657_0_0","obj":"SS2_23864657_0_0"},{"id":"AE1_23864657_1_0","pred":"abbreviatedTo","subj":"SS1_23864657_1_0","obj":"SS2_23864657_1_0"}],"attributes":[{"subj":"SS1_23864657_0_0","pred":"source","obj":"Allie"},{"subj":"SS2_23864657_0_0","pred":"source","obj":"Allie"},{"subj":"SS1_23864657_1_0","pred":"source","obj":"Allie"},{"subj":"SS2_23864657_1_0","pred":"source","obj":"Allie"}]},{"project":"PubmedHPO","denotations":[{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":259,"end":265},"obj":"HP_0002664"},{"id":"T2","span":{"begin":302,"end":314},"obj":"HP_0003003"},{"id":"T3","span":{"begin":302,"end":314},"obj":"HP_0100273"},{"id":"T4","span":{"begin":308,"end":314},"obj":"HP_0002664"},{"id":"T5","span":{"begin":363,"end":373},"obj":"HP_0000718"},{"id":"T6","span":{
