Gene Symbol | Rasd1 |
Entrez Gene ID | 19416 |
Full Name | RAS, dexamethasone-induced 1 |
Synonyms | Dexras1 |
General protein information |
|
Gene Type | protein-coding |
Organism | Mus musculus(house mouse) |
Genome | |
Summary | This gene encodes a member of the Ras superfamily of small GTPases and is induced by dexamethasone. The encoded protein is an activator of G-protein signaling and acts as a direct nucleotide exchange factor for Gi-Go proteins. This gene may play a role in dexamethasone-induced alterations in cell morphology, growth and cell-extracellular matrix interactions. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]. |
