Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 16801 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable G protein-coupled receptor binding activity and guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. Predicted to be involved in G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway and microtubule depolymerization. Predicted to be located in cytosol and plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; liver; lung; spleen; and telencephalon. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in immunodeficiency 62. Orthologous to human ARHGEF1 (Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mutation of this gene results in impaired humeral immunity, reduced numbers of marginal zone B (MZB) cells, decreased basal T cell proliferation, and reduced basal motility of lymphocytes but enhanced migration of MZB cells after serum activation.
