About PLEKHG2

Cytogenetic location: 19q13.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:39,406,847-39,428,415 (from NCBI)

This gene has 16 transcripts (splice variants), 87 orthologues, 22 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Ubiquitous expression in endometrium (RPKM 7.0), appendix (RPKM 6.7) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a RhoGTPase that can activate CDC42 by promoting exchange of GDP for GTP on CDC42. The encoded protein is activated by binding to the beta and gamma subunits of heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding protein. Defects in this gene have been associated with leukodystrophy and acquired microcephaly with or without dystonia. [provided by RefSeq, May 2017]
