About CDC42EP4

Cytogenetic location: 17q25.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 17:73,283,624-73,312,001 (from NCBI)

This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants), 238 orthologues and 5 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in ovary (RPKM 35.1), brain (RPKM 34.5) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The product of this gene is a member of the CDC42-binding protein family. Members of this family interact with Rho family GTPases and regulate the organization of the actin Cytoskeleton. This protein has been shown to bind both CDC42 and TC10 GTPases in a GTP-dependent manner. When overexpressed in fibroblasts, this protein was able to induce pseudopodia formation, which suggested a role in inducing actin filament assembly and cell shape control.
