Description
Product Characteristics:
Rho GTPases play a fundamental role in numerous cellular processes that are initiated by extracellular stimuli that work through G protein coupled receptors. The encoded protein may form a complex with G proteins and stimulate Rho-dependent signals. This protein is observed to form myeloid/lymphoid fusion partner in acute myeloid leukemia (from EntrezGene). LARG has also been implicated in linking heterotrimeric G proteins to microtubule organisation in regulation of cell polarity.
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm, Cell membrane
Synonyms: ARHGEF12, KIAA0382, leukemia-associated rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor, Leukemia-associated RhoGEF, PRO2792, Rho guanine exchange factor GEF 12, Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor GEF 12, Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 12, Similar to Mouse Lsc oncogene, ARHGC_HUMAN.
Target Information: Rho GTPases play a fundamental role in numerous cellular processes that are initiated by extracellular stimuli working through G protein-coupled receptors. The encoded protein may form a complex with G proteins and stimulate Rho-dependent signals. This protein has been observed to form a myeloid/lymphoid fusion partner in acute myeloid leukemia. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]
