Cool-1 was previously identified as an effector of activated Cdc42 and as a regulator of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) trafficking. Cool-1 has now been shown to be a phosphorylation-dependent activator of Cdc42 that contributes to transformation by Src, thus proving to be an unusually versatile signalling protein.
