Summary: Predicted to enable GTPase activator activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including establishment of Golgi localization; maintenance of Golgi location; and organelle transport along microtubule. Predicted to act upstream of or within regulation of endocytosis. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including Golgi apparatus; actin cytoskeleton; and cell junction. Orthologous to human ARHGAP21 (Rho GTPase activating protein 21). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

These results suggest that ARHGAP21 may act as a signaling or scaffold protein of FAK and PKCzeta signaling pathways, developing an important function during cardiac stress.
Title: ARHGAP21 associates with FAK and PKCzeta and is redistributed after cardiac pressure overload.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
