Gene nameARHGEF18
Protein nameRho/Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor 18
Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 18
ARHGEF18
Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 18 (114 kDa Rho-specific guanine nucleotide exchange factor) (p114-Rho-GEF) (p114RhoGEF) (Septin-associated RhoGEF) (SA-RhoGEF)
SynonymsKIAA0521
DescriptionFUNCTION: Acts as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for RhoA GTPases. Its activation induces formation of actin stress fibers. Also acts as a GEF for RAC1, inducing production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Does not act as a GEF for CDC42. The G protein beta-gamma (Gbetagamma) subunits of heterotrimeric G proteins act as activators, explaining the integrated effects of LPA and other G-protein coupled receptor agonists on actin stress fiber formation, cell shape change and ROS production. Required for EPB41L4B-mediated regulation of the circumferential actomyosin belt in epithelial cells . .
