UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: ARHG7_MOUSE (Q9ES28)
Gene Name: Arhgef7
Synonyms: Kiaa0142, Pak3bp
Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse).
Function: Acts as a RAC1 guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) and can induce membrane ruffling. May function as a positive regulator of apoptosis. Functions in cell migration, attachment and cell spreading. Promotes targeting of RAC1 to focal adhesions. Downstream of NMDA receptors and CaMKK-CaMK1 signaling cascade, promotes the formation of spines and synapses in hippocampal neurons (By similarity).
