Summary
Enables guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. Involved in several processes, including actin cytoskeleton reorganization; osteoclast differentiation; and podosome assembly. Acts upstream of or within hair cycle process. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in central nervous system and retina. Orthologous to human FARP2 (FERM, ARH/RhoGEF and pleckstrin domain protein 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
