About ARHGEF18

Cytogenetic location: 19p13.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:7,348,937-7,479,989 (from NCBI)

This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 271 orthologues, 8 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in spleen (RPKM 12.9), lymph node (RPKM 11.3) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

Rho GTPases are GTP binding proteins that regulate a wide spectrum of cellular functions. These cellular processes include cytoskeletal rearrangements, gene transcription, cell growth and motility. Activation of Rho GTPases is under the direct control of guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs). The protein encoded by this gene is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor and belongs to the Rho GTPase GEF family. Family members share a common feature, a Dbl (DH) homology domain followed by a pleckstrin (PH) homology domain. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2018]
