Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a GTPase which belongs to the RAS superfamily of small GTP-binding proteins. Members of this superfamily appear to regulate a diverse array of cellular events, including the control of cell growth, cytoskeletal reorganization, and the activation of protein kinases. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]
Annotation information
Note: RAC3 (Gene ID: 5881) and NCOA3 (Gene ID: 8202) share the RAC3 symbol/alias in common. RAC3 is a widely used alternative name for nuclear receptor coactivator 3 (NCOA3), which can be confused with the official symbol for ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 3 (RAC3). [06 Jul 2018]

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.
