ARHGEF10 Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 10

Gene ID: 9639, updated on 10-Oct-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: SNCV; GEF10

Summary

This gene encodes a Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF). Rho GEFs regulate the activity of small Rho GTPases by stimulating the exchange of guanine diphosphate (GDP) for guanine triphosphate (GTP) and may play a role in neural morphogenesis. Mutations in this gene are associated with slowed nerve conduction velocity (SNCV). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2015]
