STARD8 - StAR related lipid transfer domain containing 8 Gene
Also Known as DLC3; ARHGAP38; STARTGAP3
Species: Homo sapiens
About STARD8
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 151 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Broad expression in kidney (RPKM 8.5), fat (RPKM 6.6) and 24 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of a subfamily of Rho GTPase activating proteins that contain a steroidogenic acute regulatory protein related lipid transfer domain. The encoded protein localizes to focal adhesions and may be involved in regulating cell morphology. This protein may also function as a tumor suppressor. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]
