Summary: Predicted to enable phospholipid binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including neutrophil chemotaxis; positive regulation of GTPase activity; and positive regulation of substrate adhesion-dependent cell spreading. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including liver; nervous system; palatal shelf; skeleton; and testis. Used to study autism spectrum disorder. Orthologous to human PREX1 (phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate dependent Rac exchange factor 1). [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.
