RHOU - ras homolog family member U Gene
Also Known as ARHU; G28K; WRCH1; hG28K; CDC42L1
Species: Homo sapiens
About RHOU
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 1 gene allele, 199 orthologues and 22 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 24.2), small intestine (RPKM 22.4) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the Rho family of GTPases. This protein can activate PAK1 and JNK1, and can induce filopodium formation and stress fiber dissolution. It may also mediate the effects of Wnt1 signaling in the regulation of cell morphology, cytoskeletal organization, and cell proliferation. A non-coding transcript variant of this gene results from naturally occurring read-through transcription between this locus and the neighboring DUSP5P (dual specificity Phosphatase 5 pseudogene) locus.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]
