    Summary
    Enables GTPase activity. Involved in endocrine signaling. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including forebrain astrocyte development; modulation of chemical synaptic transmission; and positive regulation of Rac protein signal transduction. Located in membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; early embryo; eye; genitourinary system; and gut. Used to study several diseases, including Noonan syndrome 3; carcinoma (multiple); juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia; lung cancer; and prostate cancer. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Noonan syndrome (multiple); arteriovenous malformations of the brain; cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome (multiple); gastrointestinal system cancer (multiple); and hematologic cancer (multiple). Orthologous to human KRAS (KRAS proto-oncogene, GTPase). [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.
