ARHGEF26 - Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 26 Gene
Also Known as SGEF; CSGEF; HMFN1864
Species: Homo sapiens
About ARHGEF26
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 1 gene allele, 189 orthologues and 6 paralogues. Broad expression in lung (RPKM 13.8), brain (RPKM 7.6) and 23 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the Rho-guanine nucleotide exchange factor (Rho-GEF) family. These proteins regulate Rho GTPases by catalyzing the exchange of GDP for GTP. The encoded protein specifically activates RhoG and plays a role in the promotion of macropinocytosis. Underexpression of the encoded protein may be a predictive marker of chemoresistant disease. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]
