Arhgef28 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. Acts upstream of or within central nervous system neuron axonogenesis and neurofilament cytoskeleton organization. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and plasma membrane. Is expressed in adrenal gland; genitourinary system; oral epithelium; paravertebral ganglion; and stomach. Orthologous to human ARHGEF28 (Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 28). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Arhgef28 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
