Gene: RANGAP1

Alternate names for this Gene: Fug1|RANGAP|SD

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a protein that associates with the nuclear pore complex and participates in the regulation of nuclear transport. The encoded protein interacts with Ras-related nuclear protein 1 (RAN) and regulates guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-binding and exchange. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 22

Location in Chromosome : 22q13.2

Description of this Gene: Ran GTPase activating protein 1

Type of Gene: protein-coding
