| Primary Identifier | MGI:2142567 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 8 | NCBI Gene Number | 102098 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of stress fiber assembly; protein localization to cell-cell junction; and regulation of Rho protein signal transduction. Predicted to act upstream of or within actin cytoskeleton organization; regulation of cell shape; and small GTPase-mediated signal transduction. Predicted to be located in apical part of cell and cytosol. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in brain; genitourinary system; integument; and liver. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in retinitis pigmentosa. Orthologous to human ARHGEF18 (Rho/Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor 18). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a gene trap insertion exhibit greatly reduced viability. [provided by MGI curators] |
