Gene: RAPGEF1

Alternate names for this Gene: C3G|GRF2

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a human guanine nucleotide exchange factor. It transduces signals from CRK by binding the SH3 domain of CRK, and activating several members of the Ras family of GTPases. This signaling cascade that may be involved in apoptosis, integrin-mediated signal transduction, and cell transformation. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but the full-length nature of some variants has not been determined.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 9

Location in Chromosome : 9q34.13

Description of this Gene: Rap guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1

Type of Gene: protein-coding
