| Primary Identifier | MGI:1929494 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 232906 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Enables GTPase activator activity. Involved in several processes, including axon development; establishment or maintenance of actin cytoskeleton polarity; and regulation of plasma membrane bounded cell projection organization. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of Rho protein signal transduction; negative regulation of vascular permeability; and nervous system development. Located in actin cytoskeleton; ciliary basal body; and cytoplasm. Is expressed in central nervous system and eye. Orthologous to human ARHGAP35 (Rho GTPase activating protein 35). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene usually die within 2 days of birth and never survive beyond 3 weeks. Observed phenotypes include defects in eye morphogenesis, forebrain development, neural tube closure, axon guidance and fasciculation, and renal abnormalities, including hypoplastic and glomerulocystic kidneys, associated with a ciliogenesis defect.
